(Times of Israel) Iran is behind a string of terror attacks by criminal networks on Israeli embassies in Europe since October 7, the Mossad intelligence agency said in a rare statement on Thursday.
Sweden’s Säpo security service confirmed the report in a press conference later in the day, saying that Iran has been for several years carrying out activities inside the country that threaten security.
There is a significant risk that Iran will strike targets in Sweden again, according to Daniel Stenling, head of Säpo counterintelligence.
The Israeli spy agency opened up an investigation alongside European counterparts after an explosive device, said to be a hand grenade, was found inside the grounds of the Israeli Embassy in Stockholm in January and destroyed by the Swedish national bomb squad.
