Children are among the 22 killed and 119 injured in a suicide bombing at the end of an Ariana Grande concert at Manchester Arena.

The bomber has been named as 22-year-old Salman Abedi.

Detectives made at least one arrest this morning and ISIS claimed responsibility for the atrocity.

In the wake of the event, Theresa May announced live on TV that Britain's terror threat is being increased to 'Critical' - meaning an attack may be imminent.

Ariana Grande superfan Georgina Bethany Callander, 18, and eight-year-old Saffie Rose Roussos were the first victims to be named. John Atkinson, 26, is the third victim to be named.

A vigil has been held in the city's Albert Gardens tonight, attended by politicians including Jeremy Corbyn and celebrities such as Andrew Flintoff.

Our sister title the Manchester Evening News has set up a crowdfunding campaign to support the victims and their families.
