Norwegian police accused four men suspected in an attack on Oslo’s main synagogue of also plotting to blow up the U.S. and Israeli embassies.
The men, whose names were withheld, were arrested Tuesday in connection with an attack on the Mosaic Religious Community synagogue, which was hit with at least 10 bullets Sunday. No one was injured.
Police said the charges were expanded to include plotting terrorism. “We believe they discussed and made plans to attack the American Embassy, the Israeli Embassy and the synagogue in Oslo,” said police attorney Unni Fries.
