The attack highlights the challenges of identifying and addressing potential violence in schools. Despite his known fascination with Hitler and his mother seeking help for his social isolation earlier this year, the student was not flagged by authorities.

What are the main factors contributing to the record-high cocaine seizures in Germany in 2023 and their immediate consequences on public health and safety?

A surge in cocaine trafficking in Germany has led to a record 43 tons seized in 2023, more than double the previous year's amount.
