A major police operation is underway in Germany's Munich following a shooting incident near the city's Nazi documentation center, according to police reports on Thursday. Authorities have advised the public to stay away from the area, which is close to the Israeli consulate in Munich's Maxvorstadt district.

Police have deployed a helicopter to gain a better view of the situation. The shooting occurred near the Israeli consulate and a museum dedicated to documenting the history of the Nazi regime.

Israeli media reported early Thursday that the incident involved repeated gunfire near the consulate, prompting a large police response. Munich police confirmed that officers fired at a suspicious individual, who was struck by the gunfire. No further details about the incident or the individual's background were provided.

There is currently no evidence of additional suspects or incidents at other locations. The event took place in the Karolinenplatz area, near downtown Munich. Police have increased their presence across the city but have not reported any other related incidents.
