Attempted Attack on Israeli Embassy in Stockholm Thwarted

Swedish police destroy 'dangerous object', believed to be a hand grenade, outside embassy; no injuries reported.

Swedish police destroyed a 'dangerous object' found outside the Israeli embassy in Stockholm, which was later identified by some sources as a hand grenade.
The Israeli ambassador to Sweden, Ziv Nevo Kulman, described the incident as an 'attempted attack' on the embassy and its employees.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson condemned the incident as an attack on both the embassy and Sweden, and announced increased surveillance of the embassy and Jewish institutions in the country.
The incident triggered a major response, with a 100m area cordoned off around the embassy.
No injuries were reported and investigations are ongoing.
