Car-ramming is becoming a frequent way of carrying out terrorist attacks in Europe. These kinds of attacks have been seen in several major European cities ever since the last July's attack in a French city of Nice. Last July a gunman drove a heavy truck into a crowd of people celebrating Bastille Day in Nice, killing 86 people and injuring dozens.
ISIL claimed the responsibility for the attacker with the attacker identified as a Tunisian born Frenchman. Last December truck plowed into a crowded Christmas market in central Berlin, killing 12 people and injuring 48. Earlier this year in March, an attacker stabbed a policeman close to the British Parliament in London after car plowed into pedestrians on the nearby Westminster bridge. Six people died including the assailant and a policeman.
A month later in April, a truck drove in two pedestrians on a shopping street and crashed into a department store in central Stockholm, killing five people and wounding 15. And in June, three attackers rammed a van into pedestrians on London Bridge then proceeded to stab people in nearby bars, killing eight people and injuring at least 48. ISIL said it's militants were also responsible for the incident.
