History

Historical Context

On 5 September 1972 eight Black September gunmen killed eleven Israeli athletes in Munich, prompting the IOC to create a permanent security commission and spurring Germany’s GSG 9 unit two weeks later. The tragedy’s legacy shaped India’s 2024 diplomatic-security response, where Delhi Police logged a report at 7:10 pm and recovered a 3-lakh cash stash within 35 minutes.
