A shooting occurred at the office of the Israeli defense company Elbit Systems in the Kallebek district of Gothenburg, Sweden. Local TV4 Nyheterna reported that a teenager under the age of 15 opened fire on the building of an Israeli company. According to preliminary information, there were no casualties as a result of the incident. The teenager was arrested and police are investigating the incident as attempted murder and aggravated assault with a weapon.

"In the morning, we received a signal that there was a shooting at the Israeli facility in Kallebek. We left with several patrols and helicopters. The search is still ongoing," said police spokesman Fredrik Svedemir.

Last summer , an explosive device was placed at the entrance to the company. At that time, the national explosion protection service managed to neutralize the object.

"Now the campaign against the company is continuing. This is part of the specific expression of protest against the war waged by Israel. We do not know whether today's event is the result of such a situation or not. In fact, Iran is instigating actions against Israeli companies," says SVT.
