On July 4, 2025, an Estonian woman was sentenced by Swedish authorities after she paddled a rented kayak into the highly classified Muskö naval base located south of Stockholm. The woman photographed the facility using her mobile phone during the intrusion. During interrogations, she asserted she failed to notice security signage indicating restricted access. The court convicted her, imposing a conditional sentence along with daily fines, citing violations against Sweden’s national security provisions. The incident emphasizes strict security at Swedish military installations and consequences for unauthorized access and documentation of sensitive sites.
