London Terrorist Attacks

Just two weeks after 22 people were killed by a suicide bomber at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, yet another attack hit London on Saturday, June 3, according to the BBC.

A white van hit pedestrians on London Bridge, after which three terrorists armed with knives jumped out of the van and stabbed people at Borough Market on the street and in nearby restaurants. Six people were killed and at least 46 injured after the attack. Police officers shot and killed three suspects wearing fake explosive vests minutes after they were called.

As reported, the police believe all the attackers have been killed, however, the investigation is ongoing. World leaders have offered their condolences to the British capital.
