STOCKHOLM, Aug. 25 (Xinhua) -- Around 25 Swedes with links to violent right-wing extremism have either received military training or taken part in armed conflicts abroad, a new report from the Swedish Defense University showed. The Swedish Security Service (Sapo) believes this increases the risk of attacks in Sweden.

According to Sapo, which contributed to the report, these 25 individuals could pose a threat to Sweden, as their experiences abroad may have increased their ability and willingness to carry out attacks after returning home.
