Angela Merkel is to come under renewed criticism of her open-door immigration policy after another horrific attack on German soil.
Tonight a Syrian refugee wielding a machete has killed a pregnant woman and injured two other people before being arrested by police.
The attack happened in the south western city of Reutlingen near a doner kebab stand in a bus station at Listplatz Square.
German media have been reporting that the motive for the attack in the city south of Stuttgart was unclear.
The attack comes just days after a young Afghan swung an axe at passengers on a train in Bavaria.
The 17-year-old, who a witness said shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is Great) during the attack, severely wounded four Hong Kong residents on the train late on Monday, then injured a local woman after fleeing, before police shot him dead.
He had entered Germany last summer with waves of migrants, raising more questions about Chancellor Merkel’s open-door refugee policy.
Around one million migrants came to the country in 2015, many fleeing war in Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq.
