The preparations for the upcoming war is ongoing with bombings all over Stockholm and overnight two very heavy explosions were felt and heard in Stockholm.
The ones behind this is the swedish military psyop unit in Enköping and on the swedish military website they don't exactly deny what they are used for.
PSYCHOLOGICAL OPERATIONS
The task of the Psyops Association is to work and communicate in the information environment. The federation is to influence the behaviors and attitudes of people to achieve political and military goals, but also to detect and counter misleading information and influence attempts by other actors.
In an attack against Sweden, Psyops is an important capability, especially when it comes to fighting propaganda and weakening the attacker's will to fight.
The main task of the Psyops Association is to conduct psychological operations. A psychological operation begins with analysis of the information environment and the target groups, so that the association then produces messages and products and disseminates them. The products produced can range from events, meetings and conversations, to radio broadcasts and printed products such as posters and flyers.
The Psyops Federation also has the task of supporting the Swedish Armed Forces and other authorities with decision support.
The personnel at the Psyops Association consist of officers, soldiers and civil servants with varying backgrounds. The mix of many different skills is the Psyops Association's signature.
The General Secretariat
When the Psyops Union receives information from the Swedish Defense Forces headquarters (HKV), they end up with the Association's staff first. It is the staff that ensures that the union can carry out psychological operations - by planning and managing operations and efforts. The staff also plans training and exercises and ensures that resources in the form of equipment, personnel, plans, finances and facilities are available when the union needs. The staff also conducts business development as the union is constantly developing.
The analysis

analysis department works primarily in the information environment. The department identifies and analyzes other actors' attempts to influence and mislead. By gathering and processing information, the analysis department constantly delivers updated snapshots. In addition, target group analyzes are carried out for the association's psyops campaigns in order to identify and understand the target groups the Psyops Association wants to reach.
Media
department The main task of the
media department is to develop products to influence the feelings, attitudes and behaviors of different target groups. The department is a creative team of employees with experience such as journalists, photographers, illustrators, radio producers, who find clear solutions to difficult problems.
The department produces products such as radio, film and flyers, based on information and analyzes obtained.
Tactical Psyops Team
A Tactic Psyops Team (TPT) has the main task and performs psychological operations in the field. This means that TPT must be experts in communication, in order to be able to predict, prevent or reinforce the behavior of target groups. In addition, TPT is responsible for obtaining connection-specific notification.
A TPT has never fought as its main task. However, they solve tasks in diverse environments against different target groups.
