"The dramatic events that occurred yesterday (Friday, editor's note) in Oslo, whose motivations are not yet fully established at this time, call for an increase in general vigilance", indicates the Minister of the Interior, to BFM TV.
Last night in Norway, two people were killed and 21 people injured, several seriously, in the center of Oslo.
An "Islamist terrorist" gunman, according to authorities, opened fire near a gay bar, leading to the cancellation of all LGBT gatherings in the country.
“Detect possible threats likely to weigh”
Gérald Darmanin thus asked "without delay" the prefects and the directors general of the police and the gendarmerie to "mobilize all the sensors" to "detect possible threats likely to weigh" on the events planned almost everywhere in France this Saturday.
In Paris "the anti-terrorist dimension of the system, always taken into account in a context of perennial threat, has been reinforced" and "the positioning of the police has been tightened around the demonstration", indicated the police headquarters to BFM TV.
