THE MANCHESTER ARENA BOMBING
On May 22nd 2017, 22 year old Salman Abedi entered the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England. Salam brought with him a 66 pound TATP nail-bomb hidden inside of his backpack, which at 10:31 p.m (UTC) went off in the city room as thousands of people left Ariana Grande’s “Dangerous Women” concert. This bomb would kill Salman as it went off.
The nail-bomb would also kill 22 others and injure over 1,000 others. The reason why Salam did this because of the deaths of Muslim children resulting from the American-led intervention in the Syrian Civil War. Though ,at the beginning, it was suspected he acted alone. Later on in 2020 his brother ,Hashem Abedi, was tried and convicted. He was charged with 22 counts of murder, attempted murder and conspiracy to cause an explosion. Hashem was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 55 years.

VICTIMS INJURED
Many people were injured, I cannot name them all.
AFTER THE SHOOTING
A report by the Kerslake Report, the security of the arena was insufficient. Although bag searches were performed, they were inconsistent. Salman entered through the City Room, which was outside of the security zone. Security was made much tighter due to this incident.
This was the first suicide bombing in the United Kingdom since the July 7th 2005 London bombings.
