Ariana Grande was unhurt physically but inconsolable, in hysterics after learning 19 people were killed at her concert at Manchester, England few hours ago

Sources said Ariana is devastated that young people who came for a good time are now lying dead and injured.

Moments after the concert ended there was a huge explosion according to eye witnesses

😭 this is so sad. First news notification on my phone.
RIP the 19 people. Since last 2 years focus was on Paris. Now they are focussing on London.

Shocked AF.
With such tight security how do these suicide bombers come in?
Strength to all the families who lost their loved ones and hope the injured get well soon. RIP who lost their lives.

No. of people dead - 22 and more than 50 injured
It happened in Manchester, not London... She was supposed to perform in London on Thursday but understandably she's in no mood to perform. She has suspended her world tour

But you're right first Paris, even Sweden now this...

Btw sexual assaults of women in crowded areas like New Year celebrations is increasing in European cities... Perpetrators are refugees 😕

He didn't get in... The blast happened outside the arena, after the concert ended, people were leaving and that's when it went off, he's dead too

It's not clear that was the plan or he tried to get in and couldn't

BBC says the device is a home made one, nuts and bolts were packed into that weapon... You can only imagine how grievous some of the injuries are

It's scary as it's concert season now... Obviously they'll will beef up the security everywhere.

Europe is really going through turmoil & chaos since last few weeks & it doesn't seem like a coincidence at all, that after Brexit all of the violence etc has increased. UK in particular, just keeps tightening their immigration laws & focusing too much on NHS etc. all this creates an atmosphere of unrest. IDK WHAT, but there definitely seems to be something completely wrong with the world today. I was informed of this early morning & when I Googled, seeing those images of ambulances, smoke, people rushing.. I was shook.


I can't even imagine poor Grande's situation. She must be devastated. all these people came for a fun night, to see a singer they liked, there was a certain amount of trust invested since she's a big name in the pop world, and now at her concert, people died. I can't even.



RIP.

There were security checks to enter the venue, but the bomb exploded outside in the foyer, where people were exiting after the concert ended. No matter how much security is tightened, these suicide bombers find a loophole. Like they are hijacking huge trucks and crashing into crowded markets.. it's extremely difficult to prevent these type of attacks.
