The number of dead in the twin attacks in Norway rises to 92. | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Nearly all were killed when a gunman ran amok on an island summer | :00:15. | :00:21. | |
camp. Police are searching for more victims. | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
He started shooting at every single person, they were crying and | :00:26. | :00:35. | |
:00:36. | :00:36. | ||
screaming. People were falling over A 32-year-old Norwegian is charged. | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
He's believed to have links to extreme right-wing groups. Norway's | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
Prime Minister says the attacks are beyond comprehension, but urges the | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
country not to cave into fear. And, remanded in custody, the nurse | :00:46. | :00:56. | |
:00:56. | :01:07. | ||
charged over the deaths of five Norway's Prime Minister says his | :01:07. | :01:14. | |
country's way of life has been abused and attacked. More than 90 | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
people are now known to have died yesterday, seven in a car bomb in | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
central Oslo, but the vast majority shot indiscriminately at a summer | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
camp for young people on the island of Utoeya. Jon Sopel joins us now | :01:26. | :01:36. | |
:01:36. | :01:38. | ||
from Oslo. Flags are flying at half mast. | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
People are wandering around the City somewhat bewildered by what | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
has unfolded. There is broken glass on the streets. None of this | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
captures the magnitude of the scale of the shock felt by the Norwegian | :01:49. | :01:59. | |
:01:59. | :02:00. | ||
people. Our first Report has some disturbing images. | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
Gradually, the survivors are brought back from the island. | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
Traumatised and probably scarred for life, they are the lucky ones. | :02:12. | :02:21. | |
They are still alive. This is the beautiful island retreat, Utoeya, | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
which area hosts a summer camp for hundreds of teenagers around the | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
country. Earlier it seemed so perfect. The young members of the | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
governing Labour Party gathered for days of political discussion and | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
fun. But suddenly, yesterday afternoon, they were fleeing for | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
their lives, hiding in the woods and buildings, as a man dressed as | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
a police officer went on a shooting spree. Some have tried to swim away. | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
But the cold water and distance forced most back to face the gunman | :02:54. | :03:01. | |
with his automatic rifle once more. Many people died and I just had to | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
shield myself behind them and pray he would not see me. I could feel | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
his breath, I could feel the warmth from the barrel of the gun. But I | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
did not move and that is what saved my life. Other survivors arriving | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
back from the island described how they had been deceived by the gun | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
man's police uniform. TRANSLATION: People were jumping out of windows | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
and running in all directions, terrified for their lives. Most | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
people ran towards the water, hiding behind stones and hills. He | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
was dressed as a policeman, assuring he was helping us, saying, | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
come here. He had a rifle to shoot at us, it was chaos. | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
For most, caught up in the violence, it felt an eternity before police | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
special forces finally came to the rescue. That was partly because so | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
many police were still dealing with this. The aftermath of a huge car | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
bomb detonated in front of the main government buildings in central | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
Oslo. Detonating mid- afternoon yesterday, it killed and maimed in | :04:19. | :04:26. | |
the heart of a capital known for its tranquillity. This is the man | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
Norwegian media say has now been charged in connection with both | :04:29. | :04:36. | |
attacks. A 32-year-old called Anders Breivik. He is alleged to | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
hold extreme nationalist and Christian views. It is not clear if | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
he was acting alone. Today, the Prime Minister came here to the | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
area near the island where the survivors had been taken. To | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
reassure, comfort and deliver a strong message. | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
TRANSLATION: Of we must take control of Utoeya and show young | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
people can be engaged, that young people can be trusted in society in | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
debating politics, and those who try to scare us shall not win. | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
But still, the grief and shock continue. Heightened by the news | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
that many young people are still missing. So, people here in this | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
community as in the rest of the country are still waiting to find | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
out exactly how many people were killed in the shooting incident. | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
They also want to know why would a gunman opened fire on young people | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
enjoying a summer camp in a beautiful location like this. | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
As we've heard, police have charged, a 32-year-old Norwegian man with | :05:45. | :05:55. | |
:05:55. | :06:03. | ||
both attacks. Who is he a what drove him to such carnage? | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
Coming to terms with Norway's tragedy. Now the hard questions. | :06:07. | :06:14. | |
How could such a tranquil society produce such wilful carnage? The | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
suspect in custody has been named by a Norwegian media as a Anders | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
Breivik. 32 years old, born and grew up in Norway, he has been | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
charged with acts of terrorism. is not known by the police before. | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
So, we have not arrested him before or anything like that. On his | :06:35. | :06:43. | |
website as you have probably seen, he calls himself a Christian and | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
going to the right. Police searched the suspects apartment within hours | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
of the shooting, hunting for clues. They are starting to build up a | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
picture of a man with deeply intolerant views towards | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
immigration and what he saw as his government's lax policies. His | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
networking page on Facebook only recently set up names his interests | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
as body-building and freemasonry. His account on Twitter posts in a | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
quote from John Stuart Mill saying, one person with a belief is equal | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
to the force of 100,000 who have only interests. Police also | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
searched the farm he set up outside Oslo to grow fruit and vegetables. | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
It is alleged he bought six tons of fertiliser, a possible explosive | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
ingredient. In the shattered centre of the Norwegian capital, the Army | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
has been deployed. Britain amongst other nations has offered | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
intelligence help. Now this appears to be a case of home-grown | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
political extremism, it is more a case of what others can learn from | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
Norway's tragedy. We will want to make sure we learn any lessons | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
there are about how to be more secure against horrific outrages | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
like this. That is something we can discuss at the National Security | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
Council on Monday. For Norway, there is now a burning question. | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
Were these the axe of a lone fanatic or are there other right- | :08:10. | :08:18. | |
wing extremists waiting to copy his bloody example? Steve Rosenberg | :08:18. | :08:27. | |
joins us. You've been able to get close to the island. What did you | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
:08:37. | :08:38. | ||
see? A police but would not let us get | :08:38. | :08:45. | |
any closer but we could clearly see body bags still on the island. I | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
counted eight body-bags there. And you could see divers in the lake, | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
searching for more bodies, a sign that the death toll could well | :08:53. | :09:03. | |
:09:03. | :09:05. | ||
increase. How are people coping there? | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
It is an enormous shock for people in this village. Especially for the | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
holiday makers. This is a popular holiday destination in Norway. I | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
spoke to some people on an island nearby who heard the shots bringing | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
out yesterday. They jumped on a boat to help rescue people. An | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
enormous shock, especially that this massacre was carried out not | :09:30. | :09:40. | |
:09:40. | :09:41. | ||
by international terror groups but by a Norwegian citizen. | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
