A man in his 80s has died after a drowning accident in Hökåsen in Västersås, writes VLT.

The man was found by bathers.

– Resourceful private individuals have found a person in the water and picked up the person, said Roger Sverndahl at the rescue service earlier to Aftonbladet.

The man was taken care of by paramedics but his life could not be saved.

Relatives have been notified.

Eight cars have burned down in Partille, Gothenburg on Thursday afternoon. The fire also caused extensive damage to the garage where the cars were stored.

The police have drawn up a report of vandalism.

On Thursday evening, the Left Party’s party leader Nooshi Dadgostar gave a speech in Almedalen. She began by attacking the government and SD.

– When the falu sausage has never been more expensive, when the electricity bill soars and when the banks drive up interest rates, then they come with their good advice…

– Instead of leaders who build the country, today we have a bunch of grossly overpaid life coaches. Get up, Jimmie Åkesson. Rise up, Ulf Kristersson.

After talking about care and the importance of supporting young people with mental illness, Dadgostar extended a hand to the other red-green parties.

– The EU election results show that a strong, red-green majority government can get the voters’ support by 2026 at the latest.

– A new government requires new policies, a new orientation. It’s a big job. A collaboration that stands for a new course for Sweden.

Like several other party leaders, Dadgostar also mentioned the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East in his speech in Almedalen.

– We have to put an end to this terrible thing. Face sanctions against Israel. Put both Putin and Netanyahu on trial.

At 4:15 p.m., the rescue service went out to Grimstaskogen in Stockholm.

– We are still on site there and have called in the fire, including with the help of a helicopter, says the officer on duty at the rescue service.

The fire is said to have been 1,500 square meters in size and started to spread quickly because it was dry in the forest.

– There seems to be no risk of spreading anymore and no one injured either.

It was a fiasco for Folklistan in the EU elections and founder Jan Emanuel has chosen to shut down the party.

But former SD politician Johan Nissinen, who was recruited to Folklistan, does not want to give up.

– I think Folklistan should continue as a concept until the Riksdag or the next EU election, he says The Express.

But there is a problem: the rights to the name “Folklistan”, which Jan Emanuel currently holds.

– I don’t even know if he will release the name. He owns the name, so in that case he has to release it to a new board or new party leader, says Nissinen.

A 26-year-old man with dual citizenship of Ukraine and Russia was arrested on June 3 at a hotel in France. According to new information to Le Monde the man is said to have tried to build some kind of explosive device, with the aim of attacking a shop. The man’s plans must be linked to a sabotage campaign linked to Russia, according to the newspaper’s information.

The police have set up extensive cordons at Linköping’s travel center, which Corren was the first to report on. They are investigating a suspicious object.

– We are on site with several patrols after the public called in, says Olle Älveroth, press spokesperson for the police region east.

The National Bomb Squad was ordered to the scene and arrived at 6.30pm.

At 19:00, Corren reports that the National Bomb Defense destroyed the suspected dangerous object.

Train and bus traffic through Linköping continues to be stopped.

Two cars collided on the E22 at Mönsterås at around 3:30 p.m.

The extent of the injuries to those involved is unclear, but traffic has been stopped in both directions.

At around 3 p.m., the emergency services received an alert about a motorcycle accident south of Åtvidaberg.

Passers-by should have found a driver on a motorcycle in a ditch, write Corren.

The person must have been awake and able to speak and had to be taken to hospital.

A Russian court on Wednesday sentenced a Swedish man in absentia to 23 years in prison for having fought alongside Ukraine, the Kyiv Independent reports.

In addition to the Swede, three men from Great Britain and one from Croatia were also convicted.

The trial against the five men began in the partially Russian-occupied Donetsk in August 2022. Only a month or so later, however, they were released in a prisoner exchange.

The court that sentenced the men is located in the Russian city of Rostov-na-Donu near the border with Ukraine.

TT has asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a comment.

The rescue service is currently on the scene at Lommarbadet in Norrtälje for a suspected drowning accident.

– People have called in and said they heard screams. We haven’t found anything, but are looking further, Roger Sverndahl, management operator at the Greater Stockholm rescue service.

The caller suspected that someone had ended up under the bridge. The rescue service is currently assisted by divers from Stockholm.

– We will be there for about another hour.

During the afternoon, a drowning accident occurred at the swimming pool Hökåsengropen in Västerås.

– Resourceful private individuals have found a person in the water and picked up the person. We are there and assisting the healthcare system, says Roger Sverndahl, management operator at the greater Stockholm rescue service.

The person has been taken to hospital.

Aftonbladet receives information that a knife robbery allegedly took place in a garage in Liljeholmen, in southern Stockholm.

The police confirm that they have been dispatched to the scene, but do not want to comment further on the case.

– We have received information about a suspected crime, but I don’t want to go into what type of crime it is at the moment, says Daniel Wikdahl at the police.

21 Palestinian children diagnosed with cancer have been allowed to leave Gaza for treatment outside the besieged strip of land, Al Jazeera reports.

In pictures, families are seen in tearful farewells before the children are then taken out via the Kerem Shalom border crossing.

The effort takes place in collaboration with the World Health Organization and an American aid organization, according to the Qatar-based media company.

More than 25,000 children in the Strip are in need of care abroad, the health ministry in Hamas-ruled Gaza said in a statement.
