Swedish security services are accusing Iran of working with criminal gangs in the country to target Jewish and Israeli interests. Swedish authorities say Iran is recruiting gang members, including children, to commit acts of violence.
The head of the Swedish Intelligence Services Daniel Stenling said:
‘Recently we at the Security Services have noticed that Iran is more and more focusing on other states’ interests in Sweden and specifically states that it feels like it is in conflict with, and this applies not least to Israel. The Security Services can now state that criminal networks in Sweden are a proxy that Iran uses. The activities that Iran is conducting, are very much about planning and trying to implement an attack against Israeli and Jewish interests and goals and activities in Sweden.’
