There is an "elevated" risk of another far-right attack in Germany after two people were killed by a gunman targeting a synagogue in the city of Halle this week, Interior Minister Horst Seehofer warned Friday.

"The threat posed by right-wing anti-semitism and terrorism is elevated in Germany," Seehofer said on ZDF public television.

This means such an attack could happen "at any moment," he added.
