Several people have been killed in a massive explosion in Oslo which has shattered the windows of the Norwegian Prime Minister's offices and forced the evacuation of nearby buildings.


Police in Norway say the blast - which happened just after 3.30pm on Friday, July 22 - was caused by a bomb.

Great photos Meatpie! Who needs Reuters when we have you:bow:
 
Reuters are too slow, I don't like them. The BBC are fast and well-organized.
