Explosions Rock Israeli Embassy in Copenhagen

Published: 2024-10-02

In a shocking incident, two explosions occurred near the Israeli Embassy in Copenhagen early Wednesday morning.

Danish police have arrested three Swedish nationals, aged between 15 and 20, in connection with the blasts, which are suspected to have been caused by hand grenades.

The explosions resulted in material damage to a nearby building, though no injuries were reported.

The incident follows a shooting at the Israeli Embassy in Stockholm the previous evening, raising concerns about coordinated attacks.

Authorities are investigating potential links to the Foxtrot criminal network, which is believed to have orchestrated these attacks.

Both Swedish and Danish governments are in close communication as investigations continue.
