Militants staged twin bomb and shooting attacks against Norway's government on Friday, with as a deadly explosion ripping through ministry buildings and a gunman opening fire at a meeting of the ruling party - killing at least 17 people.
But an eyewitness, Andre Scheie, told Norwegian broadcaster NRK that he saw 20 to 25 bodies at the youth camp where a gunman dressed in a police uniform opened fire.
Scheie said he saw bodies on the shore of the Utoya Island where the youth wing of the Labor Party was holding a summer camp for hundreds of youths. He added: "There are very many dead by the shore ... there are about 20-25 dead." He also said he saw dead people in the water.
Meanwhile, police arrested a Norwegian man and the arrested has links to right-wing extremism, independent Norwegian television TV2 reported on Saturday, without disclosing its sources.
