Sword attack at Swedish school kills teen

A 17-year-old girl was killed and two boys badly hurt when a sword-wielding attacker struck Brinell School in Fagersta, Sweden. An 18-year-old suspect is in custody as the country reels from another school tragedy. Tensions ran high elsewhere too. Israel hit the Syrian village of Beit Jinn near Damascus, its second strike on Syria in a week, injuring several and drawing accusations it breached Syrian sovereignty. Canada and the US traded threats as well: PM Mark Carney said Washington started a trade war and vowed dollar-for-dollar tariffs from September 8. Britain had its own troubles. CrossCountry cancelled every train nationwide after a Sunday power cut stranded passengers, and Energy UK said aid for struggling households falls short as bills rise. In Kyiv, a minister sacked by Zelensky told the BBC the president owes answers on corruption and urged elections. Sport offered a break from the grim news. Beijing opened its second World Humanoid Games, with robots boxing and playing football; Alexander-Arnold said Liverpool fans' abuse since his Real Madrid move still hurts; and Lopez beat Romero for the WBA welterweight title in Las Vegas, then ducked a fight with Catterall. Savinho's £75m move to Tottenham drew scrutiny of City's club network, Starc took 10 wickets as Australia crushed Bangladesh in two days, and McIlroy shot 65 to sit joint second at the BMW Championship.
