A politician from the far-right AFD has been hit on the head on Saturday, according to the party. This means that another politician in Germany has been attacked.
The 70-year-old man was attacked at a polling station in the city of Dresden, according to the party. The police confirm the incident.
In recent times, several German politicians have been targeted for attack.
Earlier in the week, another AFD politician was attacked in the city of Mannheim. Just a few days earlier, a knife-wielding man attacked people gathered for a meeting of an anti-Islamic organization in the same city. A police officer who tried to intervene was killed.
