Video Description

Gun violence in Sweden has surged dramatically over the past three decades, largely fuelled by gang culture in marginalised communities, many of which are home to immigrants. Critics argue that government policies have contributed to the isolation of minority groups, with rising inequality and poverty serving as underlying catalysts for this violence. Will these escalating acts of violence irreparably tear apart Sweden's social fabric?
