Several Swedish teenagers are suspected of having been involved in shootings in Denmark in recent times.
On Wednesday, a 16-year-old Swedish boy was arrested after a shooting at Blågårds Plads in Copenhagen. He is now in custody on suspicion of attempted murder and weapons possession. According to the Danish news agency Ritzau, he will be detained for 23 days in a closed psychiatric ward.
As the Swedish teenage boy is not of legal age, both Danish and Swedish social authorities were present during the detention hearing which took place in Copenhagen’s byret (equivalent district court) on Thursday. He denies any crime, writes Ritzau.
According to Danish police, the teenage boy is not previously known to the police, but at the moment they do not rule out that the shooting is gang-related.

A man was hit in the leg during the shooting and the prosecutor’s office has requested the Swedish teenager be detained, writes Ritzau.
In mid-June, two other Swedish teenage boys were detained for attempted murder outside Copenhagen.

A funeral procession for Ismail Haniya is now reported to have begun in Tehran, following the death of the Hamas leader in an attack yesterday. Haniya will then be buried in Doha, Qatar, where he has lived in exile since leaving Gaza several years ago.
Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei – who previously threatened a “severe punishment” for the death – is leading prayers for Haniya in the country’s capital during the day.
According to Iranian reports, Haniya was killed in an airstrike. A projectile, according to some sources fired from another country, reportedly reached his residence in Tehran at 02:00 local time on Wednesday night.
Hamas has described it as Haniya’s death “in an attack by Zionists” and vowed retaliation. Israel’s leadership made a Facebook post on Wednesday that signaled the country was behind, but that post was later removed.
