<\/a><\/p>\nThe UK prime minister, Theresa May, in a statement, said it was “now beyond doubt that the people of Manchester and of this country have fallen victim to a callous terrorist attack” that targeted “defenceless young people”.<\/p>\n
She noted that the security services believe they know the attacker’s identity but are not yet able to confirm it.<\/p>\n
The Queen also expressed her condolences to all those affected, adding that “the whole nation has been shocked by the death and injury”.<\/p>\n
This bombing marks the worst terrorist attack in the UK since the July 7 tube bombings in 2005 in which 52 people were killed.<\/p>\n
