German police shot dead the chief suspect in a deadly Islamist attack near Berlin's Pride parade, which occurred on Saturday. The attack involved a vehicle ramming into a crowd, killing one person and injuring 29 others. The suspect, Abdul Ballout, a 21-year-old German citizen of Lebanese origin, was identified as a supporter of the Islamic State group with multiple criminal convictions. Police located him at an allotment complex and shot him after he approached them with a bladed weapon. Ballout had prior convictions for crimes including bodily harm, extortion, and robbery, and had shared ISIS propaganda online. He had previously traveled to Lebanon to fight for the militia in Syria and was arrested upon returning to Germany. Authorities confirmed the attack was an Islamist terror incident, and political leaders across Europe condemned the act.
