Måndag 6 april 2026:
An Iranian-Swedish analyst and outspoken critic of the Islamic Republic has told The Jerusalem Post he believes Tehran was behind an alleged murder plot against him in Sweden, after a teenager armed with a knife came to his home in Malmo and asked for him at the door.
Arvin Khoshnood, a researcher and commentator on Iranian affairs, said that the attempted attack last September has since been folded into a wider Swedish criminal case involving multiple defendants, a separate shooting in another city, and alleged plans to target a defense company linked to Israeli military cooperation."
"Sapo said Iran and its intelligence and security services have long conducted security-threatening activity against Sweden, including intelligence-gathering and the mapping of opposition figures. It also noted that Iran has previously planned and carried out violent acts in Sweden using proxies.
The agency added that the current regional escalation has increased the threat to American, Israeli, and Jewish interests, as well as to Iranian opposition groups and individuals in Sweden."
