Certain gates at the garrison will be closed, causing delays for people coming in and leaving the garrison, the statement added.

A Syrian national, whose asylum application had been turned down and who was about to be deported to Bulgaria after living in Germany for a year, detonated a bomb late Sunday, killing himself and wounding 15 others.

Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said the refugee who blew himself up pledged loyalty to the Daesh leader in a video found on his cellphone.
