Explosions and gunshots at Israeli embassies in Sweden and Denmark

A gunman opened fire on the Israeli embassy in Stockholm and two bombs were set off near its counterpart in Copenhagen, in what one prominent terrorism expert described as an apparent escalation of Iran’s “shadow war” against Jewish targets in Europe.

At least one gunshot was aimed at the embassy in Stockholm at about 6pm on Tuesday. At 3.20am on Wednesday, two hand grenades were detonated about 100m away from the embassy in the Danish capital.
