Big arrest, IMO. Adding on to your post:

Norway link to terror suspects

Two of the three Islamist terrorism suspects arrested in Italy on Wednesday lived in Norway under false identities.

Two of the three Algerians, Yamine Bouhrama and Khaled Serai, allegedly used forged identity papers acquired from France during their stay in Norway, according to Italian police.

One of the Islamists has reportedly trained in Afghanistan and Chechnya.

Italian media reported that the trio was suspected of planning a terrorist attack in Italy.

The men are also suspected of links with the Algeria-based Salafist Group for Call and Combat, according to an official from the Carabinieri paramilitary police in Naples. The Salafist movement has links to al-Qaida.

On Thursday morning Norway's Police Security Service (PST) was holding a meeting prior to making an official statement. The Italian Ministry of the Interior is also expected to make an announcement about the arrests on Thursday.

More hidden terrorists in Norway
The Algerians arrested in Italy are not the only potential terrorists in Norway, security forces said Thursday.
