UK travel advice on Sweden has warned visitors to beware violence, gun crime, and “explosions” in the nation’s migrant-dominated ‘no-go zones’.

“Crime levels are low” in the Nordic nation, the government advice notes, but goes on to caution: “Violent crime does occur; instances of gang-related crime, including shootings and explosions, have been reported in Malmö and Gothenburg.”

The travel advice, which was updated earlier this month, marks increasing acknowledgement by the establishment of problems Sweden is experiencing as a result of the nation’s “humanitarian” policy of importing large numbers of migrants from the third world.

In 2016, eight-year-old Birmingham schoolboy Yuusuf Warsame was killed in a bomb blast while on holiday in Sweden with his mother, brother, and sister.

They were visiting relatives in Gothenburg when a grenade was thrown through a window of the apartment where he was sleeping, in an attack which took place in the context of a continuing gangland feud between members of the city’s Somali community.

Breitbart London has been covering the worsening situation in Sweden’s migrant-dominated suburbs since 2015, and in recent months politicians have suggested sending the military to ‘no-go zones’ in a bid to tackle gang violence.

Making the proposal, Mikael Cederbratt said: “The situation in our areas of exclusion has deteriorated. The gangs have taken over and the police have had to retreat. Swedish law no longer applies there.”

The situation in these troubled suburbs, where rampant criminality and risk of violence mean almost half of residents report being too afraid to go out at night, has been documented by Breitbart London Editor in Chief Raheem Kassam in his book, No Go Zones: How Sharia Law Is Coming to a Neighborhood Near You.

In addition to boosting levels of violent crime far beyond what is normally seen in a developed country, multiculturalism has resulted in a variety of new phenomenon for Swedish services to grapple with.

In October, Breitbart London reported how cemetery staff in Malmö have had to be trained to deal with “armed funerals” in which mourners carry weapons and don bulletproof vests to say their final goodbyes.

Swedish hospitals have also had to deal with problems caused by demographic changes, stepping up security in response to patients’ friends and family members turning up to wards wearing bulletproof vests and carrying knives.

Healthcare professionals caring for gunshot victims, many of whom are criminals and people injured in gang-related violence, reported living in fear, threatened with death and rape as patients’ “clans” storm the hospital.
