The Duke of Cambridge led tributes to the victims of the Manchester terror attack at today's FA Cup final amid unprecedented security at Wembley Stadium.

Prince William, in his role as president of the Football Association, laid a wreath before kick-off of the match between Arsenal and Chelsea alongside the governing body’s chairman, Greg Clarke, Manchester mayor Andy Burnham and Culture Secretary Karen Bradley.
A minute’s silence was also held and Arsenal wore black armbands as heavily-armed police and tank-like armoured vehicles guarded the national stadium in the biggest security operation in the 145-year history of the world’s oldest cup competition.

More than half of patients hospitalised by the Manchester terror attack on Monday still remain in hospital, the NHS has revealed.

And of the 63 that remain being cared for, 20 of them are classed as being in critical care.

This is not considered the same as critically ill patients - but means they may be receiving help breathing or organ support.

NHS England issued an update on the injured this afternoon - revealing for the first time that 116 people received NHS inpatient care in the days immediately following the attack at Manchester Arena .

This msm deserves its own post, moo:

Muslim children and their relatives march to Manchester Arena to show their revulsion at bombing
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/201...atives-march-manchester-arena-show-revulsion/

"Hundreds of Muslim families marched with their children to the Manchester Arena to show their revulsion at the terror attack purportedly carried out in the name of their faith."
Most people are good and kind, especially where children are concerned, imo.

Its also a bank hol here too Margarita so lots of people away with their families. So sad for those families spending it with their injured in hospital and their loss also in some cases. Let's hope those still in critical care improve over the holiday. Keep safe over there as well.

Indeed...the article dotr just posted said more than half of the victims are still in the hospital.
 
Well that is terrifying but I don't trust the s*n and don't touch it. Do we have another source?

Oh! Thanks, sorry about that, will off them from my list and look for another source!!

Eta: what about The Telegraph?

Islamic State calls for 'all-out war' on West at start of Ramadan after Manchester attack
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/201...ls-all-out-war-west-start-ramadan-manchester/

"“Muslim brothers in Europe who can’t reach the Islamic State lands, attack them in their homes, their markets, their roads and their forums,” the jihadist group said in a message entitled Where are the lions of war? and published on YouTube."

"Defending themselves after the suicide attack on Manchester Arena, which left 22 mostly children and teenagers dead, the group said: “Do not despise the work. Your targeting of the so-called innocents and civilians is beloved by us and the most effective, so go forth and may you get a great reward or martyrdom in Ramadan.”"

(Man, that post was so Foxfire...wish he was here with us.)


Eta: Interesting, "so-called innocents"...
 
Apologies for offensive pics. but LE do want people to see if they can recall his movements since May 18th. rbbm.

CCTV images showing suicide bomber Salman Abedi on the night he attacked Manchester Arena killing 22 people, have been been released by police.

Fourteen locations are being searched and 13 people have been arrested on suspicion of terror offences.

It is unclear where the newly released images of Abedi were taken and from what time on Monday evening.

Greater Manchester Police have made an appeal to the public for information about the bomber's movements since 18 May, when he returned to the UK

"Our priorities are to understand the run up to this terrible event and to understand if more people were involved in planning this attack."

Anyone with information is asked to call the anti-terrorist hotline on 0800 789321. You can email images or footage that might be of assistance to ukpoliceimageappeal.co.uk.
