Norway: Rescue Operations Continue in Search of People after the Landslide
World | January 1, 2021, Friday // 20:03| viewsRescuers found one body on Friday, two days after a landslide in southern Norway swept away at least nine buildings, police said, with nine people still missing.
Another 10 people were injured after Wednesday’s landslide in the residential area in the Gjerdrum municipality, about 30 km (19 miles) north of the capital, Oslo.
Emergency workers are continuing their search in what Bjoern Nuland, head of the health team at the site, said was still a rescue operation. A search-and-rescue team from neighbouring Sweden was assisting.
The landslide and the rescue effort have gripped the Nordic nation of 5.4 million.
