Germany blast: Ansbach bar explosion 'leaves one dead'

15 minutes ago

Armed police in Ansbach, Germany, 25 July 2016

Armed police have sealed off the centre of Ansbach

An explosion at a bar in the southern German city of Ansbach, near Nuremberg,
has killed one person and injured at least 11 others, reports say.

There are conflicting reports about the cause, although the city's mayor is quoted
as saying it was an "explosive device".

Police have sealed off the area around Eugene's Wine Bar, the Nordbayern.de
news website reported.

Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann is on his way to the scene.

The interior ministry said that the explosion appeared to have been intentional,
contradicting initial reports that suggested it might have been a gas explosion.
Ansbach Mayor Carda Seidel told journalists that the explosion was caused by
an explosive device, Nordbayern.de said (in German).

The city's central square is packed with emergency vehicles and a town house
is being used as an operations centre, the report added.The incident comes
amid tension following other bloody events in Germany over the past week.
A shooting rampage in Munich on Friday left nine dead while an axe attack
on a train a week ago in Wuerzburg, Bavaria, injured several people.

A failed Syrian asylum seeker has blown himself up and injured 12 other people
with a backpack bomb near a festival in the south German town of Ansbach.

The state of Bavaria's interior minister said the 27-year-old man had detonated
the device after being refused entry to the music festival.

About 2,500 people were evacuated from the venue after the explosion.

GERMANY BOMB HORROR: 12 injured as Syrian asylum seeker blows
himself up outside hotspot.The suspected bomber was a 27-year-old
Syrian who had lived in Germany for two years but was denied asylum
in the country a year ago, according to Bavaria's top security official.

He blew himself up outside the wine bar in Ansbach, near Nuremburg,
after being denied access to the nearby Ansbach Open music festival,
according to Germany's interior minister Joachim Herrmann.

Hermann said it is unclear if the suspect intended to kill others or just
himself but said he had “tried to commit suicide” twice before and had
previously been in psychiatric care in the district hospital in Ansbach.

Of the 12 people injured, three were critically injured in the blast, police said.

Ansbach explosion: Bomber pledged allegiance to IS

9 minutes ago

A video showing the Syrian man who blew himself up in Ansbach, Germany, on
Sunday evening pledging allegiance to the leader of so-called Islamic State has
been found on his phone, says Bavaria's interior minister.

Joachim Hermann says two phones, multiple SIM cards and a laptop were found
with the body of the 27-year-old asylum seeker or at his accommodation.

The man threatened a "revenge attack" on Germans in the video, he said.

Fifteen people were injured.

Bavarian authorities said that the bomb was constructed in such a way that it was
clearly meant to kill as many people as possible.

Further bomb-making equipment was found at the asylum seeker accommodation
where the man was living, including petrol, hydrogen peroxide and batteries, they added.

A detailed analysis of the content of the videos was ongoing, Mr Hermann said.
"Some Salafist content was found," he said.
