The 2011 Norway attacks were a pair of terrorist attacks against the civilian population, the government, and a political summer camp in Norway on 22 July 2011. The first was a car bomb explosion in Regjeringskvartalet, the executive government quarter of Oslo, at 15:22 (CEST),[6] outside the office of Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg and other government buildings.[7] The explosion killed eight people and wounded several others, with more than 10 people critically injured. The second attack occurred less than two hours later at a youth camp organized by the youth organization (AUF) of the Norwegian Labour Party (AP) on the island of Utøya in Tyrifjorden, Buskerud. A gunman disguised as a policeman opened fire at the campers, killing 68 attendees,[3][8][9][10] including personal friends of Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg and the stepbrother of Norway's crown princess Mette-Marit.[11] The Norwegian Police Service arrested Anders Behring Breivik, a 32-year-old Norwegian right-wing extremist,[12] for the mass shootings in Utøya[13] and subsequently charged him with both attacks.[14] The European Union, NATO and several countries around the world expressed their support for Norway and condemned the attacks.
