The Swedish embassy in the United Kingdom is urging Swedes in the country to avoid large gatherings of people.

"Since the beginning of August, riots have taken place in several British cities, motivated by xenophobia. It is strongly recommended to avoid large gatherings of people", the embassy writes on its website.

During the past week, unrest has broken out in several places in the country, after three girls between six and nine years old were killed in a stabbing incident in Southport in England. The riots have been described as the largest in ten years in the United Kingdom.
