Keep working tonight

Search teams have repeated throughout Sunday that they are still searching for survivors of the landslide disaster.

– There are very demanding working conditions in the landslide zone for those who work there. We are still in an active search for survivors and we are in a rescue operation until it is decided otherwise, repeats Bjørn Christian Willersrud in the police during a press conference from Gjerdrum at 9 pm.

Rescuers are planning to conduct further searches tonight and tonight, and have noted that there are sufficient crew and resources to continue the work in the future.

“We plan to maintain the same pressure in the future, and we have planned until Monday night in the first instance,” the operations manager said early Sunday.

Cooled

The person in charge of the health task, Gunnar Farstad, points out after questions from the press at 9 pm that the survivors are probably very cold.

– Conditions are now considered to be such that you have to lie in a cavity in the masses of buildings to have a chance to survive, as long as it has been now, and with the temperatures. There are a number of stories from other parts of the world, true mostly with higher temperatures, where people live a long time, as long as they are in a cavity, where there may also be isolation, says the health chief Sunday night .


He says there is experience in Norway that it is possible to survive extreme hypothermia, with a core temperature well below 20 degrees.

– Isolated general cooling, there are a lot of examples that it is possible to survive, even after many hours of circulatory shutdown, but combined with damage, it is clear that cooling is a very, very serious factor.

Seven dead

During the press conference held at 7:00 p.m. on Sunday night, the police reported that a new discovery had been made of a dead person after the landslide. Seven people have been found dead.

– The latest news in the rescue operation is that at 17:27 we found a person in the landslide area. Sadly, the person has been confirmed dead at the scene, Bjørn Christian Willersrud told police at 7:00 p.m.

– The deceased was found after very good cooperation between the police intelligence service, police dogs and USAR crews. These are very demanding conditions to work in the landslide area, Willersrud said.

Air bags give hope

It has also been noted above that they can still find survivors, as it may be the air pockets in the area of ​​the slide that make it possible.

– There may be insulated air bags. That is why we maintain that there is a possibility of finding survivors, said the head of health operations, Fritjof Heyerdahl, during the press conference on Sunday afternoon.

He could not answer about how long the state lasts that it is a rescue operation.

– We will continually evaluate it beyond now, tomorrow and the next few days.


– Difficult to move

One of the ground crews, Inge Myhrer, Urban Search and Rescue Officer (USE) and Rescue Group Leader at the Nedre Romerike Fire Service, reported Sunday night on the demanding search conditions.

– It’s hard to move. We have to make roads where we have to move, he said at a press conference.

– We paved roads where dog teams mark and search for buildings and where there may be cavities, Myhrer explained.

He said they are continually evaluating the safety of the well.

– We maintain a close dialogue with geotechnicians and geologists. One of the four security officers down there is a geologist, Myhrer said.
