Denmark is intensifying its border controls with Sweden following a surge in violent incidents involving Swedish nationals.

Recent developments have seen several Swedish teenagers, previously unknown to law enforcement, arrested for serious crimes in Denmark.

This new wave of criminal activity has prompted Denmark to enhance surveillance and physical checks, particularly on trains crossing the Øresund Bridge.

Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard has expressed concerns over Swedish individuals being recruited for gang-related activities in Denmark, likening them to 'child soldiers.

' In response, Sweden's Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer acknowledges the gravity of the situation and emphasizes the need for joint efforts to curb this trend.

Despite the heightened security measures, the impact on regular commuters remains uncertain, with transport authorities monitoring the situation closely.
