Christmas attack in Magdeburg
Minister: Signs that the arrested person is mentally ill
No motive behind the attack in Magdeburg, Germany, has yet been established, but according to Interior Minister Nancy Faeser, there are “striking signs” that the arrested suspected perpetrator has a mental disorder. This is reported by AFP.
According to Faeser, it is more difficult to detect and stop mentally ill people who are driven by conspiracy theories because they do not fit the threat profiles in the same way as, for example, right-wing extremists and Islamists do.
Investigators are now looking at the tens of thousands of posts on X that Taleb al-Abdulmohsen has published over the years.
“Who knew which clues and what was passed on when, that must be carefully clarified,” says Faeser.
Government crisis in Germany
Government spokesman: Musk is trying to influence the election
Tesla billionaire Elon Musk is trying to influence the German election, a spokesman for the German government says according to Reuters.
Elon Musk, who in addition to being one of the world's richest people also appears to have a great influence on Donald Trump's incoming government, has expressed support for the German far-right party AFD in several statements.
The spokesman also says that Musk has the right to speak out, since "freedom of speech also includes magnificent nonsense".
Starmer's Labour
Poll: Keir Starmer more right-wing than his party
Prime Minister Keir Starmer is further to the right than almost any other Labour politician in the British parliament. This is shown by a recent survey reported by The Guardian.
- Before Brexit, I would have said that it is normal for a party leader to be in the middle of his party, says Chris Hanretty, professor of politics at the University of London, who led the study.
Starmer receives 48 “right-wing points” in the survey, which places him in the middle of parliament – but to the right of almost his entire party. The Liberal Party leader Ed Davey, with 37 points, is significantly further to the left.
The Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch receives 88 points, and is thus in approximately the same place as Reform UK’s Nigel Farage, with 90.

Eagle S lawyer: “No assignment from Russia”
The criminal classifications in the case of the Eagle S ship are completely fabricated. This is claimed by lawyer Herman Ljungberg, a specialist in maritime and transport law, who represents the crew.
– So the assignment did not come from Russia, I can guarantee that, he tells DN.
He calls the intervention of the Finnish authorities a “hijacking” and says that the crew is being questioned without legal assistance, since he himself has been prevented from having contact with the crew, citing the difficulty of getting him on board.
Ljungberg says he has been involved in about ten cable incidents and that "this happens in shipping".
The crew is being investigated for serious sabotage after a break in the Estlink 2 cable between Finland and Estonia. Finnish police have discovered a tens of kilometres long tow track on the seabed, and one of the ship's anchors was missing.

Coffee farmers desperate - resorting to unhealthy methods
Climate change is leading coffee farmers to resort to unhealthy methods to protect their sources of income, writes the BBC.
Coffee trees need plenty of rain and warm, humid air to grow, and small temperature differences and changing weather conditions can make a big difference. As a result of this, coffee production has decreased in Kenya, for example, in recent years. Changing temperatures make fungal infections spread more easily and wipe out large parts of the harvest.
This has led Kenyan farmers to use strong pesticides that in the long term damage ecosystems and pose health risks, and have therefore been banned in some EU countries.
“Climate change is a major challenge for our coffee farmers,” says John Murigi, chairman of the Komothai Coffee Society.
