At 03:10 on Wednesday morning, several calls came in about a suspected shooting, says Stockholm police spokesperson Ola Österling.

– A family was sleeping in an apartment on the ground floor and several rooms have been hit by shots. There is information that several people were outside the apartment in connection with this.

No one is reported to have been physically injured.

It is too early to say whether there is any connection to the wave of violence in recent months where similar crimes have occurred, according to the police. During the night of Tuesday, an apartment facade in Husby was fired upon with several shots and two men have been arrested.

– The incident is similar, says Ola Österling.

The police are now carrying out background checks and hope to arrest those involved in the night’s shooting.

On Tuesday, Vladimir Putin signed a decree allowing Russia to take temporary control of foreign companies’ assets in the country.

The Kremlin published the signed document online, which states that it has taken over the assets of Finnish energy giant Fortum. The same measure has been directed against the German energy company Uniper. Fortum sold Uniper to the German state last year.

From the Russian side, it is believed that this is a response to measures against Russian interests by the United States and other countries.

The decree came a day after Andrey Kostin, CEO of VTB, one of Russia’s biggest banks, said Russia should take over the local assets of foreign companies and return them only when sanctions against Russia are lifted. He then mentioned Fortum as an example.

Fortum has been trying to sell its Russian assets for the past year but was stopped by local authorities, reports say Helsingin Sanomat.

The EU Parliament and the Council of Ministers have reached an agreement on greener aviation fuel, which is part of the Union’s Fit for 55 climate package.

The negotiators agreed late on Tuesday, among other things, that at least two percent of aviation fuel must be fossil-free and sustainable by 2025 and 70 percent by 2050, according to a press release from the EU Parliament.

The negotiators have also agreed on which aviation fuels are to be classified as sustainable. These are synthetic fuels, some biofuels made from surplus materials from agriculture and forestry, algae, biological waste, used cooking oil and some animal fats, and recycled jet fuel made from gas or used plastics.

According to the agreement, fuels made from fodder or food crops or from palm or soy products should not be classified as green because they are not considered sustainable.
