💨 Abstract

The Frankfurt Christmas market, one of Germany's oldest and largest, has been issued public health and safety warnings due to risks from cannabis consumption and knife crime. Hesse's interior minister, Roman Poseck, plans to ban cannabis and increase police presence to enforce a knife ban. The cannabis ban extends to 196 other Christmas markets in Hesse. The decision follows a knife attack at a festival in Solingen last August.
