2 hand grenades explode near Israeli embassy in Copenhagen, police detain 3 Swedish men

Danish police said Wednesday they had detained three young Swedish men for questioning in connection with two blasts near Israel’s embassy in Copenhagen, which they said had been caused by hand grenades. Police did not confirm if the trio, aged between 15 and 20 years old, were linked to the incident but expect to file preliminary charges against two of them for illegal weapons possession. The blasts caused damage to a building approximately 300 metres from the embassy, but police could not say whether the embassy had been the target of the attack. The blasts occurred against a backdrop of escalating tensions in the Middle East as Iran carried out a massive missile attack on Israel.
