Terror group claims responsibility for the Berlin truck massacre and calls for more attacks at Christmas markets across the globe
Shocking messages show German-speaking terrorists encouraging each other to run over 'unbelievers'
ISIS has claimed responsibility for the Berlin truck massacre, praising the terrorist behind the attack as a "soldier of ISIS".
The terror group also called for lone wolves to smash cars and lorries into groups of "unbelievers" at Christmas markets across the globe.
Through its Amaq news agency, the jihadi group said the attacker carried out the atrocity "in response to calls to target nationals of countries in the international coalition".
Chilling messages, posted just half an hour after a lone attacker ploughed a truck into the Breitscheidplatz market last night show a German-speaking jihadist encouraging more attacks.
The pro-ISIS Telegram channel also encouraged future 'lone wolf' attackers to pledge their allegiance "immediately" though a contact bot.
The jihadist reportedly wrote [translated from German]: "As already announced several times: the enemy can never stop these kinds of attacks.
"You need nothing more than a vehicle, be it a truck or a car, the right intention and an unbelieving crowd.
"By Allah, these operations leave the enemy to return frightened and terrorised. So who will continue the rest of the Christmas markets?
"Let the unbelievers never forget the Lions of Islam's Christmas market!"

And the same thug called repeatedly for more attacks like those in Nice, which killed 84 people.
They added: "Race a car into the gatherings and meetings of the unbelievers.
"Get out of your car and, God-willing, you will go to paradise. Run over the unbelievers, it's the simplest method to kill them as shown by the Nice effect.
"Brothers, surrender lots of the unbelievers and Allah will show you mercy for killing so many of them."
And terrorists in Germany are desperate for a "successful" attack with a huge death toll, like those in France and Belgium.
The sickening messages also read: "A single brother with only one car rented from the unbelievers killed over 90 dirty unbelievers in Nice - when will the German Nice finally come?"
The attacker 'intentionally' drove a 32-tonne truck through the Christmas market, mounting a pavement before crashing into a crowd of shoppers.
It tore through stalls leaving a bloody trail in its wake, before ending its 150ft rampage outside the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in the city’s centre.
ISIS was quick to claim responsibility for the attack, which bears similarities to the Bastille Day attacks in Nice earlier this year.
