Four German men face charges after a racially-motivated attack against two students from Israel and Yemen in the eastern city of Magdeburg.
The students were set upon in a tram on Friday afternoon by five men, who punched them and uttered racial slurs. One of the attackers threatened the students with a knife.
The tram driver alerted police, who arrested four of the attackers, aged between 35 and 46. Police said the quartet face charges of inciting racial hatred, threatening behaviour and causing bodily harm.
