Stormy weather across the Baltic Sea region has resulted in the death of one person, caused airport delays, suspended ferry services and led to a train’s partial derailment in Sweden.

Three people were taken to hospital after two of the train’s passenger carriages went off the tracks in Hudiksvall, a town 174 miles north of the Swedish capital Stockholm, police said.
