A Swedish cathedral was evacuated after a far-right group phoned in a bomb threat during a commemoration of human rights. After police failed to find any explosive devices, the approximately 100 attendees, which included Auschwitz survivors, were let back into the church in the southern city of Lund. The church was hosting a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
