What Is the Foxtrot Network, the Enigmatic Scandinavian Criminal Group Accused of Attacking Israeli and Jewish Targets on Iran’s Behalf?
The Foxtrot Network, led by wanted Swedish-Iraqi-Turkish crime figure Rawa Majid, is accused of recruiting teenagers and young adults for violent operations across Europe. The group came under renewed scrutiny after Norwegian teenager Johannes Natland was convicted in the United Kingdom of conspiring to carry out a contract killing. U.S., British and Swedish authorities allege that Foxtrot and Majid cooperate with Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence to target Iranian opponents, Israeli interests and Jewish institutions. Sweden has linked the network and its rival Rumba gang to bombings, shootings and other violence, while Iran denies the accusations and says Sweden is relying on false information from Israel.
