A shooting outside an Oslo gay bar which killed two people and wounded 14 is being investigated as a terrorist attack
It happened hours before the city's Pride parade was set to be held.
Whilst it is not clear whether there was any connection between the two, the parade has been cancelled following advice from police. "Oslo Pride has received clear advice and a recommendation from the police that the parade, Pride Park, and any other event in relation to Oslo Pride be cancelled. Oslo Pride therefore implores anyone who had planned to participate in or watch the parade, not to show up," said the organisers on Facebook."We will follow the police’s recommendation and take care of each other. We are sending warm thoughts and love to next of kin, those who were wounded, and others affected.
"We will soon be proud and visible again, but today, we will share our Pride celebrations from home."Posted by
