An explosion in central Oslo has led to a temporary halt in activity as police detonated a grenade and arrested one individual. Norwegian authorities are currently investigating the incident, urging the public to steer clear of the area due to the potential presence of more explosives. Drones were observed hovering above Oslo’s city center, with police conducting a controlled detonation of a grenade.

Residents were notified of the explosion through mobile alerts, advising them to avoid windows due to the remaining explosive device in the vicinity. The detonations occurred near a university campus with no reported injuries, and the area has been cordoned off by law enforcement. Further searches revealed a planted hand grenade and other unexploded devices, suspected to have been left on a tram line.

Witnesses described the explosions as deafening, with one resident recounting the sight of an individual wearing a hood fleeing the scene. The incident occurred near Bislett Stadium, with reports of a burning smell in the area. This event follows previous drone sightings in Oslo, where two individuals were apprehended at the Akershus Fortress. Additionally, multiple unmanned aerial vehicles were detected over Copenhagen Airport, leading to its temporary closure.
