Today in Germany: A Roundup of the Latest News on Tuesday

Merz says the CDU must explain reforms better after the AfD won nearly 44% and the party suffered its heaviest defeat in years.

  • On Tuesday, Oslo prepared for King Harald V's funeral as authorities implemented significant travel restrictions across the capital. Police established roadblocks on highway 159 ahead of the official ceremony.
  • Lane narrowings on highway 159 created significant congestion for commuters entering Oslo on Tuesday morning. Severe restrictions also affected the E6 motorway between Gardermoen Airport and Oslo throughout the day.
  • State airport operator Avinor requested reduced air traffic on Wednesday to accommodate official arrival flights. Airlines including SAS and Norwegian cancelled roughly 40 flights, affecting routes between Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, and Trondheim.
  • Department Director Anne Grethe Hestenes of the Norwegian Public Roads Administration warned commuters to expect "very demanding traffic conditions" on both days. Officials advised motorists to "avoid driving into or through Oslo" if alternative options existed.
  • Oslo District Court granted Marius Borg Høiby, son of Queen Mette-Marit, special permission to attend the funeral on Wednesday despite remaining in police custody until October 5th. The ruling underscores the balancing of legal proceedings with state ceremonial obligations.
