On the anniversary of the Olympics attack: Shots fired in front of the Israeli Consulate in Munich

Munich police said shots were fired in front of the Israeli Consulate on Friday.

The incident took place on the 50th anniversary of the 1972 Munich Olympics attack, in which 11 Israeli athletes were killed.

The police said in a statement that they were called to the scene at around 11:30 a.m. local time and found shell casings on the ground.

They said there were no injuries and that they were investigating the incident.

The Israeli Consulate is located in the Lehel district of Munich, near the site of the 1972 Olympics.

On September 5, 1972, eight Palestinian terrorists attacked the Israeli team at the Olympic Village.

The terrorists killed two Israeli athletes and took nine others hostage.

The hostages were eventually killed during a failed rescue attempt by German police.

The Munich Olympics attack was one of the most notorious acts of terrorism in history.

It cast a shadow over the Games and led to increased security at future Olympic events.

The 50th anniversary of the attack has been marked by a series of commemorative events in Munich.

These events include a wreath-laying ceremony at the site of the attack and a special exhibition at the Munich City Museum.
