Manhunt under way in Germany after a suspected 'Islamist terror attack' at Berlin Pride

One woman is dead and at least 29 injured after a van was driven into a crowd.

Officials in Germany say they are treating yesterday's fatal attack on the Berlin Pride festival as a likely act of Islamist terrorism. One person was killed and 29 others were injured when a man drove a van into crowds before stabbing several people. A huge manhunt is under way for a 21-year-old suspect described by the authorities as a known criminal with links to extreme Islamist groups. Also: More than 3 hundred thousand people have now been ordered to leave their homes in France and Spain -- where several fierce wildfires are raging near major cities. And: Andy Burnham has declined to commit to spending 3 percent of GDP on defence by 2030 - despite his Chancellor, John Healey, calling for that target to be met when he resigned as Sir Keir Starmer's defence secretary last month. He was speaking to the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ's Laura Kuenssberg, in his first major broadcast interview as Prime Minister.
