Manchester Concert Explosion

At 10:30pm local time, a “huge bang” was heard outside a concert hall in Manchester, England, where pop star Ariana Grande was performing. Police have confirmed a number of fatalities and injuries, but the total number is still unknown.
Police are currently treating the incident as a possible terror attack until they know otherwise. This does not necessarily mean that it was, in fact, a terror attack — merely that the police are treating it that way until they can determine what happened. No one has claimed responsibility for any attack.
Here's a running tally of what we do and don't know about the attack. We will continue to update this post as we learn more information.

What we know about the attack

the Police has confirm 19 people dead and around 50 injured from the explosion. Concert goers reported hearing a loud bang, which sparked chaos inside the Manchester Arena concert hall.
notes that the explosion occurred “within the foyer area” of the Manchester Arena, one of the largest indoor stadiums in Europe.
  • The BBc reports that the concert-goers were most young people, which makes sense since the performer at Manchester Arena was Ariana Grande.
  • Facebook has even activated it safety check so that people can communicate with family.
  • May the souls of those dead rest in Peace, and may God heal the wounded
