New Wave of Violence Shakes Stockholm

Published: 2024-03-06

Stockholm has been shaken by a resurgence in violence, with three explosions in recent days signaling what could be the onset of a new wave of violence, dubbed "Violence Wave 3.0." These attacks, stemming from the fragmentation of the once-unified Foxtrot criminal network, appear to be retaliatory but often misdirect individuals uninvolved in the conflict.

The violence has resulted in multiple injuries and significant damage to property, raising concerns among law enforcement officials about a potential escalation into a vendetta spiral.

Police continue their efforts to quell the violence, amidst fears that recent prosecutions linked to the Foxtrot network could further inflame tensions.
