“I would like to offer a large apology,” the 33-year-old Breivik said Monday, addressing those who were injured or killed in the bombing.
The right-wing extremist said he had “lost absolutely everything” on July 22, 2011, all his family and friends, therefore he understood the loss he imposed on others.
He offered no similar apology for those injured or killed in the Utoya island massacre.
Breivik faces terrorism and premeditated murder charges for detonating a bomb in the center of the Norwegian capital, Oslo, last July and a shooting spree at the governing Labor Party’s annual youth camp on Utoya in which 77 people were killed.
If found sane, Breivik faces a maximum 21-year sentence, but sentences can be prolonged indefinitely for inmates deemed to pose a danger to Norwegian society. Similar rules apply in psychiatric care.
The July 2011 incident was Norway’s worst massacre since World War II.
