Wedges of Swedish school firing were seven women and three men, police say

The victims of the younger mass shooting in Sweden were seven women and three men between the ages of 28 and 68, police said on Friday after the identification process was completed.

They were killed at an adult education center in Orebro on Tuesday, about 125 miles (200 km) from Stockholm, in an attack that sent shock waves through Sweden.

All the victims lived in Orebro, but so far the authorities have refused to share their identity or other details about them.

Police also confirmed on Friday that the suspect is a 35-year-old man in the area. It is widely named in the Swedish media such as Ricard Anderson.

Anna Bergquist, head of the police investigation, told the BBC on Thursday that the suspect had killed himself at school.

Police confirmed that the suspect had owned four rifles legally, three of which were found inside the school after the attack with 10 blank magazines.

Sweden's coalition government on Friday has announced plans to strengthen the laws of the country, which makes it difficult to buy weapons and limit certain types of rifles.

In the absence of official confirmation of the identity of the victims, information appeared through their families and communities instead.

Among them was Salim Iskar, a 29-year-old man who escaped the Syria conflict in 2015 with his mother and sister after his father was killed there.

Iskar studied in the center of Risberg, where the attack – a school, popular with immigrants who study Swedish and other subjects happened.

Isker Carrine Elijah's fiancée, 24 -year -old, attended a long -standing Orebro service on Thursday night with her mother and other family members.

Jacob Casselia, the priest in the Syrian Orthodox Church, attended by Iskar and his family, told the BBC that he was “just a good man.”

“He was not looking for problems. He showed only goodwill. He was a member of our community,” Casselia said.

Basam Al Shele, a 48-year-old bakery and chef and father of two, is also referred to by the Swedish media as one of the victims of the attack.

He is reported to have studied in the center of Risberg to improve his English.

Bosnia and Herzegovina's national was killed and another was injured, said the Bosnian Foreign Ministry, citing information shared by Orebro residents.

In a social media publication on Friday, Swedish Prime Minister Wolf Crusters acknowledged that the event had caused fear among immigrant communities and called on people to “unite and to stand behind everything we hold on to dear together.”

“My thoughts are with the relatives who have now received the call, which is the worst that can be obtained. For you I want to say: you are not alone. We are standing next to you,” he writes.

The arms of the weapon remains unknown. A video shot inside the building during the attack and published by Swedish media seems to have recorded someone using anti -immigrant sentiment, but the footage is not confirmed as accurate by the authorities.

Middle East community members have immigrant communities told BBC that they feel vulnerable And they take additional precautions in the days after the attack.

The right -wing coalition in Sweden, which relies on the support of the far -right Democrats in Sweden, said on Friday that it would seek to increase a check on weapons and ban certain types of weapons.

“There are certain types of weapons that are so dangerous that they should only be possessed for civil purposes as an exception,” a government said.

Prime Minister Kristerson, on a visit to Latvia, told reporters that the government should “guarantee that only the right people have weapons in Sweden.”

The Swell Democrats said she agreed with proposals to amend the law, including greater restrictions on access to semi-automatic weapons.

“The terrifying act of violence in Orebro raises several key questions about weapons legislation,” the party said in a statement.

The AR-15, a special style of a semi-automatic rifle that is both powerful and can carry large magazines, has been separated from the government as an example of a weapon that can be limited.

According to the existing Swedish weapons laws, any over 18 years of age who have no criminal record can apply for a rifle, a gun or a semi -automatic rifle.

They need to justify the police why they need a gun. People over 20 may apply for a special distribution for possessing a fully automatic weapon.

About 580,000 Swedes have a weapon license of about 10.5 million, according to Swedish television operator SVT.

A 2017 Swiss survey found that there were about 2.3 million civilian cannons in Sweden. This is about 23 guns per 100 people, compared to 29 in Norway and 120 per 100 in the United States.

In order to obtain a hunting license in Sweden, a theory and a practical test are required. About 280,000 Swedes have one.

Sweden has a relatively high level of weapons and crime with weapons by European standards, although most weapons are legally owned and used for hunting.

Weapon crime is mostly associated with bands who have also undertaken to use bombs to target each other.

The crime of Ganges-related weapons is less common, and Tuesday attacks the country's first firing in the country and its worst mass shooting. A total of four people were killed in two separate school pierces in 2015 and 2022.
