Another night, another bomb – and the cycle continues
Late Tuesday night, yet another explosion rocked Sweden—this time in Upplands-Bro, north of Stockholm. A bomb was placed outside a ground-floor apartment in the same area where an explosive device was found just two nights earlier.
🔹 The details:
At 11:40 PM, the device detonated, shattering windows but, miraculously, injuring no one. Police have cordoned off the area, and one person has been arrested on suspicion of aggravated public destruction.
🔹 "I'm used to it," says local resident
This was the fourth bombing in the same area, yet some residents now see it as part of daily life. One person told reporters:
👉 “No, I’m not worried. I’m used to it.”
Another resident, more cynical, pointed to Sweden’s political choices:
👉 “We voted for ‘open your hearts’—I guess this is the result.”
🔹 Six bombings in one day—yet police claim progress
Tuesday alone saw six explosions across Sweden, most of them in the Stockholm region. Meanwhile, police claim to have arrested a “key bombmaker” connected to the recent wave of attacks. According to officials, these bombings are orchestrated by criminals abroad, while the foot soldiers carrying them out often have zero connection to the addresses they target. Many are underage and already on the run from social services.
🔹 Politicians hold meetings—criminals set the agenda
In response, the government is doing what it does best—holding meetings.
✔️ 11:00 AM today – Stockholm police and the national crime unit will hold a press conference on their response to the crisis.
✔️ Thursday – Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer will meet with Sweden’s "Council Against Organized Crime" to discuss how to stop the violence.
More talk. No action.
Let’s be real: the number of bombings per day will likely drop in the coming weeks—not because the government has fixed anything, but because the gangs will shift tactics. The core problem remains.
A 2023 police report estimated that 30,000 individuals are active in Sweden’s criminal gangs. When you factor in the broader clan networks—imported largely from the MENA region—the number likely reaches into the hundreds of thousands.
The truth is simple: Most of these people should never have been allowed into Sweden in the first place. And if Sweden ever hopes to reclaim safety and stability, the vast majority of them will have to return to where they came from.
Until then, the bombings will continue. The violence will continue. And the politicians will keep holding meetings while Sweden burns.
