A group of elite SAS-style commandos has apologised after blowing up the wrong house in a training exercise.
The squad – from Sweden’s K3 cavalry division – were supposed to attack an unoccupied home bought by the military for attack drills.
Instead they launched a terrifying night assault on another home 200 yards away from their target in Rojdafors, Sweden.
“They were extremely lucky that the couple who own the property were out or they could have been killed,” said one neighbour.
The troops blew out both front and back doors and every single window before they realised their mistake.
The K3 unit is considered the most deadly strike force in Sweden and likes to compare itself to the SAS and America’s SEALs.
An army spokesman said: “We’ve already cleaned up after ourselves and we have, of course, contacted the owner. There’s no hard feelings between us.”
