The Uloya Massacre: Norwegian’s worst post-war attack

Oslo: Norway fell into the horror on July 22, 2011, when the extremist right-wing Anders Behring Breivik killed dozens in a bomb attack at the center of Oslo and a photo shoot on Utoya Island.
At 3:25 on Friday it rains, a rented van packed with 950 kilograms of explosives (2,100 pounds) made of fertilizer exploding outside the residential tower of the office of the Minister of Prime Minister.
Although the bombing killed eight people and injured more dozens, many employees had gone before the explosion such as Breivik, then 32 years old, had been trapped in traffic.
Stoltenberg escaped without getting hurt when he worked at his official residence about 2 kilometers (1.2 miles) away.
It was disguised as a police officer, Breivik heard on a vacation car radio, he had parked a little far away so the 17-storey building did not collapse as he expected.
Disappointed, he moved to the second phase of his plan.
Breivik took the ferry to Utoya Island about 40 kilometers northwest Oslo, an annual summer camp site for hundreds of members of the Workers’ Youth Liga (AUF), affiliated with the Central Labor Party.
At 17:17, he stepped from MS Thorborn, a small boat used by the Auf to transport people across the lake.
He immediately took organizer camping a long time Monica Bosei – also known as Uthoya’s mother – and a police officer who did not work responsible for security.
Armed with ruger rifles and Glock pistols, Breivik explored the island, tracking young people who were confused and posing as a police officer who came to protect them to gain their trust.
He killed 13 people in the hill cafeteria on the island, 10 other young men holding hands along the “love road” ran along the coast and 14 closer to a small warehouse housing.
A total of 189 shelt sheaths were collected from 72 minutes of massacre.
Trapped on an island only half a kilometer, many of the young people threw themselves into the cold waters of the lake to escape.
Looked on shots, people rushed from the closest camps on the boat to try and save the swimmers – only for Breivik to shoot them too.
The Gunman, who has taken a mixture of aspirin and ephedrine and caffeine stimulants before launching his attack, shouting, “you will die, Marxis” to the people in his sight.
Even though he twice called “I finished my operation and I wanted to give up,” he continued the second killing.
Breivik shot almost everyone he met, methodically resolved many people who were injured by a shot to the head.
Of the 69 victims, 56 was found with bullet wounds to their heads.
The rubber boat carrying the police response team from Oslo broke down on the lake, and the officers had to be forwarded to Utoya by the nearest sailor.
Breivik was not resistant to the police and was arrested at 18:34.
Of the 564 summer camp participants, 67 were shot dead and two fell to their deaths or sank, in the worst post-world tragedy in Norway.
33 others suffer bullet wounds.
Most of the victims are younger than 20, with the youngest 14 only five days earlier.
One body of an 18 year old boy was full of eight bullets.
Breivik said he was aiming to hold “the appearance of fireworks” to draw attention to the anti-immigrant screed, anti-marxist nicknamed “Manifesto”.
In response, Prime Minister Stoltenberg promised “more democracy, more openness and more humanity”.
At his trial in 2012, Breivik acknowledged the fact but begged innocent.
He was sentenced to 21 years in prison, which could be extended indefinitely as long as he was considered a threat to the community.
