Swedish teens recruited by gangs, exploited by Iran

Swedish kids as young as 14 are being used in violent attacks targeting Israeli interests—recruited by local gangs, allegedly acting at Iran’s direction, according to Swedish intel.

Gangs like Foxtrot and Rumba are exploiting minors, using social media to coach them into shootings and attempted bombings—often with no idea who’s pulling the strings.

This mirrors similar plots across Europe, as Iran reportedly expands its proxy tactics westward.

Sweden now faces a dual crisis: rising youth violence and foreign actors weaponizing its gang problem.

NEW: Türkiye and Israel Explore Deconfliction Line in Syria

Türkiye and Israel are holding backchannel talks to set up a deconfliction mechanism in Syria, after Israeli strikes hit the T4 airbase in Homs — a site Türkiye planned to use for drone operations.

According to Western officials, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu saw a narrow window to strike before Turkish forces arrived, after which the base would be off-limits.

“An attack on Turkish troops, even by mistake, could trigger a major conflict,” one official said.

Despite tensions, both sides released identical statements denying any intent to clash. A regional source added:

“The U.S. remains the final arbiter. Washington wants de-escalation.”

Netanyahu Moves to Block Türkiye's F-35 Deal

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is pressuring the U.S. to block F-35 sales to Türkiye, seeking to maintain Israel’s military edge.

According to senior Western officials, Netanyahu raised the issue multiple times with Secretary of State Marco Rubio in March and April 2025.

“Netanyahu has privately said he will push Trump against the F-35 sale,” one source said, though he has yet to bring it up directly with Trump.

Rubio, a known Türkiye hawk, is seen by Netanyahu’s team as “instrumental in stopping the F-35 deal.”

A source close to Ankara downplayed the lobbying effort:

“Netanyahu could only demand Trump to sell more F-35s to Israel… You cannot tell Trump not to make that sale.”

EU Proposes 25% Tariffs on U.S. Goods in Retaliation

The tariffs will take effect in two phases, starting May 16 and December 1, and will target products including diamonds, dental floss, sausages, nuts, and soybeans

Items like bourbon, wine, and dairy—initially targeted—have been removed from the list. A proposed 50% bourbon tariff had led Trump to threaten a 200% counter-tariff on EU alcohol.
