The suicide bomber who brought carnage to the Manchester
Arena has been named as Salman Abedi.
Monday night's attack at a concert by US pop star Ariana
Grande left 22 people dead, including an eight-year-old girl, and dozens
injured.
Theresa May raised Britain's terror threat level from severe
to critical and said the military could be deployed to support armed police
officers at public events.
Abedi, believed to have been born in Manchester and of
Libyan descent, studied business at Salford University but dropped out before
completing his degree.
