German lawmakers on Thursday approved a partial ban on the full-face burqa Islamic veil and a package of security measures aimed at preventing extremist attacks.
The new laws follow several attacks, including a truck rampage through a Berlin Christmas market that claimed 12 lives, and come ahead of September elections.
The new law on facial coverings falls short of a total ban in public places demanded by right-wing parties, like that in effect in neighbouring France since 2011.
