A gunman reportedly opened fire near the Israeli consulate in Munich.
According to the Kan public broadcaster, there are no injuries in the attack and the gunman has been “neutralized.”
Video circulating on social media appears to show a heavy exchange of fire near the consulate, which is located close to a museum on the city’s Nazi-era history.
The apparent attack comes on the anniversary of the 1972 Munich Olympics terror attack.
