| Description | A huge explosion damaged government buildings in central Oslo on Friday, injuring several people, a Reuters witness said.
The blast blew out most windows on the 17-story building housing Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg's office, as well as nearby buildings including the oil ministry, which was on fire.
Reuters correspondent Walter Gibbs said he counted at least eight injured people.
The cause of the blast was unknown but the tangled wreckage of a car was outside one building. Police and fire officials declined comment on the cause.
The Norwegian news agency NTB reported that the prime minister, Jens Stoltenberg, was safe. |
