In light of potential threats, Sweden is intensifying its preparations for a nuclear attack, despite its perceived improbability.
Key targets for such an attack could include ports, airbases, and military installations.
The Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) has issued guidelines for firefighters on how to respond to nuclear explosions, emphasizing basic survival strategies.
Furthermore, Sweden's NATO membership does not diminish the need for readiness against nuclear threats, as emphasized by military and defense experts.
Preparations are underway across various sectors, including the training of civil conscripts and updating educational materials to enhance national resilience against nuclear incidents.
