On Friday evening, a knife attack at Hamburg's bustling central train station resulted in injuries to at least 17 people, with four victims reported in critical condition. The local fire department confirmed that all injured were hospitalized. The Hamburg police suspect a 39-year-old woman, who acted alone during the attack, though they have yet to identify a motive. The incident occurred near tracks 13 and 14, directly in front of a long-distance train. The train station, labeled Germany's busiest, has a history of violence, prompting the city to declare it a weapons-free zone. This marks the second major knife-related incident in Germany within a week; earlier, five individuals were wounded in Bielefeld, allegedly by a suspect from Syria who reportedly expressed support for ISIS.
