German police fatally shoot gunman near Israeli consulate in Munich.


Munich police fatally shot a gunman near the Israeli Consulate and a Nazi-era history museum on the anniversary of the 1972 Olympic Games attack. The authorities are investigating the incident as a potential terrorist attack, suspecting the consulate as the likely target due to the timing and location. The 18-year-old Austrian gunman, believed to have connections to Islamic radicalization, opened fire on officers before being killed in the exchange. The situation caused a tense response from 500 police officers, but the all-clear was given after 90 minutes. Germany's president pledged to update Israel's president on the investigation.
