Terrorist attack in Germany left 9 killed

MojNews-A German far-right extremist killed at least nine people on Wednesday night in the western town of Hanau, near Frankfurt.

The perpetrator, who targeted migrants at two cafes, was identified by security forces as ۴۳-year-old Tobias R., German daily Bild reported. 

He and one other person were found dead in an apartment in Hanau following a raid by a German special operations team. 

Hesse&#۳۹;s Interior Minister Peter Beuth told reporters on Thursday that initial findings in the police investigation showed that the perpetrator was acting with  &#۳۹;xenophobic motives.&#۳۹;
