         Today, the Swedish military announced that they had made three plausible sightings of foreign underwater activity. There has been suspicion of Russian invasion in Sweden. Rear Adm. Anders Grenstad mentioned that the armed forces had looked at the activity taking place, in the Stockholm group of islands, and the nearby coastal area, but decided not to share their findings or give any details. It is a reminiscent of the time when the Cold War was happening and Sweden's armed forces were hunting for Soviet submarines in their water. The armed forces had released an image, taken on today, of an object that was underwater from a distance, but it was not obvious what kind of object it was. Grenstad only told reporters that the region where the object was located is "of interest to a foreign power". The military had mentioned that an intelligence operation is taking place, which started up on Friday. Grenstad said that they had no information about any emergency messages about a Russian mini-submarine getting into trouble in the Swedish waters. Russian News Agencies have said that the Defense Ministry in Moscow mentioned that their submarines have been doing their work in the world's oceans. Russian military vessels have reported no emergencies or accidents. Swedish officials would not expand on their ideas about which foreign power could be behind the possible invasion Friday. 
           Much attention has been brought to this significant observation made by the Swedish armed forces. It is important for everyone to be aware about what suspicion is rising in Sweden.
