It's Monday, 23 December. Welcome to the President's Daily Brief. I'm Mike Baker, your eyes and ears on the world stage and in our continuing game of Where's Waldo, appearing today from an airport somewhere in the northwest heading out towards the far east. So... Mit all dem gesagt, lasst uns berichten.

Wir fangen mit der Tragödie in Deutschland an, in der ein Fahrer mit Unwissenheit in einen kräftigen Weihnachtsmarkt flog, fünf tot und über 200 verletzt. Die Behörden recherchieren die Verbrecher, als die Nation weint.

Später im Show beobachten wir einen Fall eines freundlichen Feuers über dem Red Sea, in dem zwei US-Navy-Piloten nachdem ihr Jet von einem US-Kriegsflug verletzt wurde, geflogen wurden. Plus, we'll have an update on the Gaza ceasefire negotiations, where Palestinian officials are claiming a deal is nearly complete and only a few sticking points remain.

And in today's back of the brief, good news for the new de facto head of Syria, as the US is scrapping the longstanding $10 million bounty on his head. But first, today's PDB Spotlight. A devastating act of terror unfolded this weekend in Magdeburg, Germany.

A driver plowed a vehicle into a bustling Christmas market, killing at least five people, including a nine-year-old child and injuring over 200 others. The suspect has been identified as a 50-year-old Saudi national and doctor named Taleb Abdelmolson. He was arrested at the scene after his vehicle came to a halt amidst the carnage.

Authorities have since charged him with multiple counts of murder and attempted murder, calling the attack a deliberate act of terrorism. The scene at the Christmas market was, frankly, one of horror. Witnesses described the moment that the car careened through the festive gathering as both sudden and violent.

165.051 - 186.37 Mike Baker

Stalls were destroyed, decorations scattered and the joyful sounds of the season replaced by screams. Emergency responders arrived swiftly, treating the injured and securing the area as police apprehended the suspect. Nun, dieser Angriff hat die Debatten in Deutschland und in Europa über die Sicherheits- und Immigrationspolitik eröffnet.
