#Denmark: there has been a shooting at the Field's shopping centre in Copenhagen. Situation is ongoing. Not much more is known than that there have been shots fired and people hit. Chaos currently overtaking the area as everyone flees. expressen.se/nyheter/missta…

Police in #Denmark say the shooter at the Field's shopping mall murdered three people, a man in his 40s and two "young people" (no more specific), and injured others, three critically. The arrested perpetrator is described as an "ethnic Dane" (i.e. white). apnews.com/article/shooti…
Before the 3 July shooting in #Denmark, there was a similar event in #Norway on 25 June. The peculiar thing is that this has not happened in #Sweden, where there are far more guns in criminal hands, in milieus that mix organised crime and jihadism

#OTD 1916: The first day on the Somme, a terrible bloodletting for the British and French, with 20,000 killed and 40,000 wounded. The campaign, however, nearly broke the Germans on its own, and was crucial in setting up the Allied victory two years later in the Great War.
The Franco-British Somme offensive in the west combined with the Russian "Brusilov Offensive" from the east. Had several other factors gone differently, e.g. the Romanians had come into the war a couple of weeks earlier, it might have shattered Germany in the summer of 1916.
The effect of the Somme-Brusilov experience in the summer of 1916 convinced Germany that nothing like that kind of land-based set-piece battle must ever happen again. Berlin switched to trying to suffocate the Allies with a naval blockade that in the end sealed its fate.

#Russia bombed a block of flats in Odesa overnight, killing at least ten civilians
