Several explosions taking place in a crowded shopping district of Stockholm, capital of Sweden, yesterday afternoon, when holiday shopping was at it's height, was the result of a terrorist attack. Severe but unspecified threats had been made to the police and to news agencies minutes before the explosions. Multiple explosions came from one parked car, it was believed to have been filled with some kind of gas tubes, which would have caused a serial explosion, or multiple explosions, like that. Only a block away, and at around the same time, another explosion took place, believed to have been the result of an attack of a suicide bomber. At that time and at that place the result could very well have been a massive disaster. But luckily enough, as of yet at least, only one death (that of the presumed suicide bomber) and a only a few injured have been reported. Having all of my family in Stockholm this weekend (most of my siblings live there, but this weekend the rest of them, and both my parents, were there too) I was of course very worried when I heard of terrorist bombings in central Stockholm, but as far as I know so far, none of them were affected. Now I am kind of relieved (about the

low extremely low death count), and a bit worried (about the future, will this be a recurring thing?). love/Reb
