Two Ukrainian Soldiers Stabbed to Death in Germany by Russian Citizen

Two Ukrainian men, who were members of the armed forces and had been in Germany for medical rehabilitation after sustaining injuries during the war, were stabbed to death in the southern German state of Bavaria.

Ukrainian media reported that the victims had been receiving medical treatment in Germany when the attack occurred. Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has instructed diplomats to closely monitor the case and maintain constant contact with Germany’s security agencies to ensure the suspect is brought to justice.

The fatal stabbing took place on the premises of a shopping center in Murnau in Upper Bavaria on Saturday evening. Police reports indicate that there are no indications so far that the crime was connected to the Russian war against Ukraine.
