# Sweden: 3 Men Arrested Near Israeli Embassy in Stockholm
The Swedish police announced on Friday that they have arrested three men near the Israeli embassy in Stockholm, suspected of preparing to commit a violent crime. The arrests were made near the embassy, but not inside the compound itself ¹.
According to the police, it is too early to determine whether the embassy was the target of the suspected plot. However, Swedish TV4 channel reported, citing unnamed sources, that the three men are suspected of planning to attack the embassy ¹.
Police spokesperson Susanna Rinaldo told Reuters, "We cannot comment on the potential motive." The suspects will be interrogated, and the police are investigating the incident ¹.
This incident comes after the Swedish police strengthened security measures around Israeli and Jewish interests in the country following a shooting incident near the Israeli embassy last year ¹.
