Police have arrested six more people following an armed raid launched in connection with the Norway twin attacks, Sky sources say.
Officers from the police's counter-terrorism force, known as Delta, swooped on a property in the east of Oslo earlier today.
Sky can reveal that police are trying to access two chemical containers at the address.
Police confirmed the operation but would not give further details or comment whether there were any arrests.
The latest arrests come as the death toll climbed to 93 after a person injured in Friday's shooting on Utoya island died in hospital, reports say.
It also follows news that the suspect accused of the massacre confessed to police that he carried out the killings but said he did not break the law.
Police said 32-year-old Anders Behring Breivik was also adamant that he acted alone.
Addressing the media earlier, acting police chief Sveinung Sponheim spoke about the suspect and how he had "admitted to the facts of both the bombing and the shooting, although he's not admitting criminal guilt".
"He says that he was alone but the police must verify everything that he said," the police chief said. "Some of the witness statements from the island (shootings) have made us unsure of whether there was one or more shooters."
