Near miss reported over Östersund

Göteborgs Posten, my local newspaper, is reporting that two Boeings – an SAS 737 and a Finnair 757 – had a near miss on 2 July at 11 000 metres over Östersund. They are said to have been at the same altitude and on conflicting paths, passing only 300 metres from each other. The Swedish Transport Agency and Accident Board are investigating.
