德國西部北萊茵-西法倫州一幢住宅樓宇內的一個單位發生爆炸，造成多達30多人受傷，包括一名25歲女警和一名29歲男警危殆，7名消防人員受傷，其中四人嚴重，3人危殆，另有22人輕傷，大部分傷者嚴重燒傷。
事件發生於北萊茵-西法倫州的Ratingen市。事發時，警方和消防人員接到報案，指一名業主出租的單位的信箱已有一段時間沒有取走郵件，擔心單位的租客發生意外。警方和消防人員到場後，一名57歲男子打開單位的門，同時引爆炸藥，導致單位迅速陷入火災，多名警員和消防員嚴重受傷。警方在單位內發現了一具女性屍體，相信是該男子的母親並已死去一段時間。該名男子在現場被逮捕。
北萊茵-西法倫州的內政部長Herbert Reul表示，嫌疑犯的動機目前尚未明確，但據警方紀錄，該男子早有犯罪前科，原定在本周五因一宗案件在法庭應訊。另有猜測指嫌疑犯是一名「新冠否認」者，懷疑今次的動機可能與新冠否認運動有關。
這次爆炸事件引起了人們對新冠否認運動和極端行為之間的潛在聯繫的關注。當局正在努力確定事件的確切情況，並將有關的涉案人士繩之於法。
An explosion in an apartment building in the North Rhine-Westphalia state of western Germany has left over 30 people injured, including a 25-year-old female police officer and a 29-year-old male police officer in critical condition, as well as seven firefighters, four of whom are seriously injured and three in critical condition. The majority of the injured suffered severe burns.
The incident took place in Ratingen, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia. Police and firefighters were alerted by a property owner who reported that the mailbox of a rented unit had not been emptied for some time, raising concerns for the tenant's safety. When they arrived, a 57-year-old man opened the door to the unit and detonated an explosive device, causing the unit to quickly catch fire and resulting in severe injuries to multiple police officers and firefighters. The police found a woman's body inside the unit, believed to be the suspect's mother, who had been dead for some time. The suspect was subsequently arrested at the scene.
Herbert Reul, the Minister of the Interior of North Rhine-Westphalia, stated that the suspect's motive is currently unclear, but according to police records, the man had a criminal record and was due to appear in court on Friday for another case. There are also speculations that the suspect may be a "coronavirus denier," and that the motive for the explosion could be related to the denial movement.
The explosion has raised concerns about the potential connection between the coronavirus denial movement and extremist behaviour. Authorities are working to determine the exact circumstances of the event and to bring those responsible to justice.
