Explosion near Israeli embassy in Denmark

An explosion occurred approximately 500 meters (yards) from the Israeli embassy in Denmark, police said on Monday, coinciding with the one-year anniversary of the Hamas October 7 attack on Israel.
The blast went off five days after two explosions near the building resulted in the detention of two Swedish nationals.
Copenhagen police inspector Trine Moller said, “We are of course looking into whether there could be a connection to the (earlier) incident at the Israeli embassy.”
“There is no indication that this is the case,” she added, suggesting that the explosion was likely caused by gunfire, AFP reported.
The incident occurred on the one-year anniversary of the October 7 attacks, which triggered Israel’s assaults on Gaza and Lebanon and sparked protests against the wars worldwide.
Sweden’s intelligence agency, Sapo, suggested that Iran might have been involved in the October 2 explosions in Denmark and a shooting near Israel’s embassy in Stockholm the previous day.
In May, Sapo claimed that Iran was recruiting members of Swedish criminal gangs to commit “acts of violence” against Israeli and other interests in Sweden, an allegation that Iran denied.
Last week, Denmark detained three Swedish nationals in connection with the explosions, and on Thursday, a Danish court remanded two of them – aged 16 and 19 – in custody for 27 days.
Copenhagen police stated that the third Swede, who was arrested near the crime scene, had been released.
