WW3 fears as Sweden tells citizens to prepare for nuclear war “Issues five million pamphlets”
The government in Stockholm has updated its “If crisis or war comes” document from six years ago because of the “worsening security situation” following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
Sweden has issued five million pamphlets warning its citizens to stockpile food and water – just hours after Volodymyr Zelensky‘s chilling video address to Vladimir Putin warned US missile strikes “will speak for themselves.”
The government in Stockholm has updated its “If crisis or war comes” document from six years ago because of the “worsening security situation” following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. It comes just as Washington has given the green-light for US-missiles to be used to strike inside Russian territory for the first time.
Zelensky warned Putin the US missiles could be used in just days. He said: “There’s a lot of talk in the media about us receiving permission for respective actions. But strikes are not carried out with words. Such things are not announced. Missiles will speak for themselves.”
It comes as residents in Sweden warned its residents to “shelter” amid fears of nuclear war breaking out. The pamphlet, which has been issued just five times since World War II, is twice the size of previous years. It states: “The global security situation increases the risks that nuclear weapons could be used. In the event of an attack with nuclear, biological or chemical weapons, take cover in the same way as in an air attack,’ it instructs readers. Shelter provides the best protection. After a couple of days, the radiation has decreased significantly.’
Meanwhile, another dire warning, which has been brought forward from the middle of the booklet in the updated version, reads: ‘If Sweden is attacked by another country, we will never give up. All information to the effect that resistance is to cease is false.”
Neighbouring Finland has also just published and updated his advice online on “preparing for incidents and crises” on how to manage on their own in the event of a war. In a section on military conflict, the digital brochue explains how the government would respond in the event of an armed attack – stating authorities are “well prepared for self-defence.”
Norwegians also received a pamphlet urging them to manage on their own for a week in the event of war, extreme weather and other threats. In the summer, Denmark’s emergency management agency confirmed it was emailing Danish adults on the food, water and medicine they would need to get through a crisis for three days. The list of items to be kept at home included long-life foods such as tins of beans, energy bars, pasta, and medicines in case of a nuclear attack.
