Norway mourns Utoya victims
Norway has been commemorating the 77 victims of a bomb and gun massacre that outraged the nation a year ago.
Anders Behring Breivik, a 33-year-old far-right fanatic, confessed to the July 22, 2011, attacks: a bombing of the government headquarters in Oslo, killing eight, and a shooting massacre that left 69 dead at the left-wing Labour Party's youth camp on Utoya island.
Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg joined Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt, survivors and families of victims for a ceremony on Utoya island marking the anniversary.
Eskil Pedersen, the leader of the Workers' Youth League, who survived the attack, led a minute's silence for the victims.
