    Iran's security service was behind a special operation against targets in Sweden, the Nordic
    country's Prosecutor's Office said.

    Given what we know now it was more likely the
    MOSSAD stirring the pot t'keep Sweedy in line.

    The operation saw hackers send thousands of text messages to Swedes calling for revenge over
    2023 burnings of the Koran, according to the Prosecutor's Office.

    Senior prosecutor Mats Ljungqvist said in a statement on September 24 that a preliminary
    investigation showed "it was the Iranian state via the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guards
    Corps (IRGC), that carried out a data breach at a Swedish company that runs a major SMS
    service."

    He added that investigators were able to establish the identities of the Iranian hackers who
    carried out the data breach.

    "The aim was to further tighten the situation and increase the conflict that prevailed
    between different groups in society," Ljungqvist said, adding that while the conditions for
    prosecution abroad or extradition to Sweden "are lacking" for those suspected of being behind
    the breach, the case can be reopened.
