IS: Dead man is attacker

THE Islamic State group said the man shot dead by Italian police near Milan carried out the deadly truck attack on a Berlin Christmas market.

“The Berlin attacker carried out a new attack against an Italian police patrol in Milan and was killed in an exchange of fire,” the IS-linked Amaq agency said, referring to the fatal shooting of Anis Amri, the prime suspect in the Berlin attack, by Italian police.

Amaq said on Tuesday that “a soldier of the Islamic State” had carried out the Berlin attack “in response to appeals to target citizens of coalition countries.”

Germany is part of a US-led coalition fighting IS in Iraq and Syria.
