After a car crashed into a rally in Munich, Germany, a woman placed a flower at the scene of the funeral. Germany has been in grief following Thursday's tragedy. Police in Munich, Germany, said a 37-year-old woman and her 2-year-old daughter have died as a result of injuries they received in Thursday's automobile attack. When a car crashed into a throng during a trade union rally, at least 37 people were hurt. According to authorities, the driver was Farhad N, a 24-year-old Afghan asylum seeker who was also known in the local media. Prosecutors claim that since his detention at the scene, he has acknowledged carrying out the crime. 

He seemed to possess a religious motivation, officials said. The mother and child were among those taken to hospital with serious injuries following the attack. "Unfortunately, we have to confirm the deaths today of the two-year-old child and her 37-year-old mother," police spokesman Ludwig Waldinger told the AFP news agency on Saturday. The car ramming has brought security issues back into focus the week before federal elections are held in Germany. 
A series of attacks have been carried out in Munich by immigrants, with two of the alleged attackers coming from Afghanistan. The attack also occurred on the eve of the Munich Security Conference, which began on Friday. Upon arrival in the city on Friday, US Vice-President JD Vance expressed his condolences to the victims in the attack. What we know about suspected car attack in Munich Car ramming comes as migration at forefront of German elections Authorities have said the suspect arrived in Germany in 2016 and, although his application for asylum was turned down, he was allowed to stay in Germany as he faced risks being deported back to Afghanistan. He had a valid residence and work permit. He had no previous criminal record, and police said there was no evidence of a link to a jihadist group. He also appears to have acted alone, German authorities say. On Friday, police said the suspect told officers during questioning that he had driven his Mini Cooper car intentionally into the crowd. 
Munich public prosecutor Gabriele Tilmann told reporters that the suspect had said "Allahu Akbar" - God is greatest in Arabic - when he was detained. She suggested he "may have had an Islamist motivation". Campaigning around Germany's election on 23 February has for weeks been embroiled in a fevered debate about migration. It was called due to the collapse of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's coalition government last year. A number of violent incidents linked to migrants over the past year have led to increased support for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party.
A man crashed his automobile into a German Christmas market in December, killing six people and injuring at least 299 more. A 50-year-old Saudi asylum seeker who had been a vocal opponent of Islam was the suspect. Additionally, in January, a group of youngsters were stabbed at a park in the Bavarian town of Aschaffenburg, resulting in an attack that shook the nation and killed a two-year-old child as well as a bystander who tried to help. The 28-year-old Afghan asylum seeker is the suspect in that incident.
