Turkiye on Thursday expressed optimism that the motive behind the suspected car-ramming attack in Munich, Germany, “will be revealed as soon as possible,” Anadolu reports.
Türkiye is “deeply saddened” by the incident, “which, according to initial assessments, was a deliberate attack,” the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The ministry wished those injured a speedy recovery and hoped that those potentially responsible would face justice and be held accountable.
