Prosecutors say the death toll in the attack on a Christmas market in the German city of Magdeburg last month has risen to six as a woman succumbed to her injuries.

At least five people are now known to have been killed in the vehicle-ramming attack on a Christmas market in the German city of Magdeburg on Friday.

A 52-year-old woman has died in hospital from injuries sustained in last month's Christmas market attack in Magdeburg, Germany, bringing the death toll to six, prosecutors have announced. The victim succumbed to injuries received when a car was deliberately driven through crowds of shoppers at the festive market on December 20.

Taiwan President Lai Ching-te said on Wednesday that he welcomed equal, dignified, healthy and orderly exchanges with China, but wondered whether there was goodwill from Beijing given what he said was their blocking of simple things like tourism.

A woman who was injured during the Dec. 20 attack at a German Christmas market died at a hospital on Monday, increasing the death toll to six.
