Sweden: explosive device destroyed in Israeli embassy compound. Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson described the situation as “very serious” “An attempted attack on an embassy is an attack both on those who work there and on Sweden,” he wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Over the two months following the start of the war between Israel and the Palestinian movement Hamas, 120 complaints for inciting anti-Semitic hatred were recorded in Sweden. In early December, the Swedish PM and members of his government took part in a march against anti-Semitism.
