In an extremely bureaucratically formulated press release, the police say that churches and synagogues are terror targets at Christmas. Thus, the police arm themselves to ensure the best possible readiness in case someone strikes.
A press release from the Police Directorate states that there will be national armament from 20 December to 2 January.
The reason is according to the police that PST has reported that «religious assembly sites appear as actualized terror targets.» This is associated with «religious holidays in the period». The only religious holidays in the period from 20 December to 2 January are Christian and Jewish holidays.
With the advent period just around the corner, most Norwegians are in full swing with preparations for Christmas. December 24th, as we all know, is Christmas. Many in Norway gather in both the Norwegian Church and free churches to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
