The international media has reported that the Swedish Security Service, known as SÄPO, raised the"terror threat level” one notch to"high", the fourth of five levels, for the first time since 2016. The move reflects Swedish concerns that repeated Quran-burnings this year by a handful of anti-Islam activists had made the Scandinavian country a prime target for Islamic extremists. - Bernama
