Russian
military has once again surprised Sweden with another military practise
near the Swedish border and Sweden has not reacted.
The Swedish
daily Svenska Dagbladet, which initially exposed the holed in the
Swedish security system, has reported once again that the Swedish
military went again into a slumber while the Russians were examining
how easy it was for them to attack Swedish outposts as they trained
this time closer than before.
Sources told the newspaper that a signals and intelligence from a Russian plane
was collected and showed that on Saturday a Russian spy plane flew in
the narrow strip of international airspace between Öland and Gotland on
the Eastern side of Sweden, shown on the graphic illustration below.

The Swedish Parliamentary Standing Committee on Thursday will receive a statement from the Swedish defence incident preparedness.

Anders Silwer did not want to reveal to Svenska Dagbladet in relation to the behaviour of the incident preparedness reaction to Saturday's Russians second attempts.
"We do not comment on every single event, "he said.
