On a Sunday night, an explosion occurred just outside the U.S. embassy in Oslo, which prompted an immediate investigation by Norwegian police. As they looked into the incident, they discovered that a video featuring the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had been uploaded to the embassy's Google Maps page around the same timeframe. Authorities have not yet confirmed whether the video was posted before or after the explosion, leaving questions about the connection between the two events.

The police, led by Bjørn Willy Wold from the PST’s counter-terrorism section, mentioned that it is natural to consider the incident in light of current geopolitical tensions, particularly those related to the Middle East. This leads investigators to explore the possibility that the explosion could be linked to wider security concerns emerging in that region. Despite the gravity of the situation, no arrests have been made, and there are currently no suspects identified.

Local residents reported feeling significant tremors in their homes due to the explosion, emphasizing the event's intensity. The combination of the explosion and the mysterious video raises serious implications regarding security and diplomatic safety for foreign embassies in Norway, especially amid the backdrop of rising international tensions.
