On Thursday, September 7, a woman in her 60s was shot dead in her home in the Gränby area of Uppsala. She was the mother of one of the leaders of the criminal network Foxtrot, and according to sources to SVT News, the murder was a response to a revenge shooting in Istanbul with links to the "Kurdish fox", Rawa Majid, and his allies.

The fatal shooting was expected to lead to more violence. This has also been the case.

In ten days, seven people have been killed in shootings. However, not all of them have links to the factional battle within the Foxtrot.
