Last night, rescue teams searched for a long time for survivors after the landslide that took place in Gjerdrum five days ago.
Ten people were reported missing. Seven have been found dead. Three still to go. Police and rescue teams still hope to find them alive.
5:45 AM Monday morning, Operations Manager Gisle Sveen in the Eastern Police District tells Dagbladet that they have made no finds last night.
Rest well
New person found dead
Sveen also says that the ground search has been put on hold.
“They told me we took the gang out of Uso and let the dogs and the place rest a bit,” Sveen tells Dagbladet.
The Uso crews, who are specially trained in urban search and rescue work, will soon be back in the rush.
– It won’t take long, says Sveen.
The operations manager doesn’t know when the ground search will start again, but according to TV 2 it’s roughly 8-9 time.
The landslide is still under surveillance, even though rescue teams have a break.
Looking for survivors
Bjørn-Ivar (40) and Alma (2) lost their lives
The director of operations re-emphasizes to Dagbladet that they are still looking for survivors, and that there is still talk of a rescue operation. There is still hope, police say.
The search operation is still known as a rescue operation, and the operations manager says there is hope of finding survivors.
Alma Grymyr Jansen (2), Marius Brustad (29), Eirik Grønolen (31), Bjørn-Ivar Grymyr Jansen (40) and Lisbeth Neraas (54) are among the dead.
Two more people have been found, but not yet identified.
