Explosion in Malmö points to hand grenade

Police in Malmö were alerted to an explosion on Saturday evening, with findings on site pointing to a hand grenade detonation on Eriksfältsgatan. No injuries have been reported.

On the evening of Saturday, February 28, 2026, police in Malmö were alerted to a loud bang on Eriksfältsgatan. The bang was heard at 22:45, but it was not until 23:30 that police located the explosion site—a facade showing traces of a detonation.

Findings made by police in the area point to a hand grenade that exploded, according to reports from Sydsvenskan. The site has been cordoned off, and a technical investigation is to be conducted to determine exactly what occurred.

There is no information indicating that anyone was injured in connection with the incident. Police have not released any further details on suspects or motives.

Reports also surfaced on Friday of an explosion heard in the same area, though it is unclear if there is any connection to Saturday evening's event.
