Over 20000 considered 'subjects of interest' by United Kingdom anti-terror agencies

British police released new photos Saturday of the suspected Manchester Arena suicide bomber taken from security footage on the night of the deadly attack - and implored the public for more help.

A statement released by singer Ariana Grande on Friday expresses grief for the victims of the Manchester Arena bombing earlier this week, which killed almost two dozen people and injured dozens more.

United Kingdom police said late Wednesday that leaks to American media amounted to a breach of trust and undermined their investigation into the attack, stepping up criticism earlier from Home Secretary Amber Rudd.

Prime Minister Theresa May will confront President Donald Trump over US media leaks from the Manchester bombing probe, as one of the closest intelligence-sharing partnerships is tested as never before in the fight against global terrorism.

Greater Manchester Police, which has released the images, has not revealed where they were taken or at what stage of the evening.

Ariana Grande will return to Manchester for a benefit concert to support and uplift those affected by the tragic and horrific terror attack that left 22 dead and dozens more injured outside her concert Monday.

The pop sensation made her plans clear through lengthy statement posted on Twitter.

"Eight men remain in custody for questioning". A minute's silence was observed in honor of the victims at a square in central Manchester and in other places in Britain. In addition, officials in Libya said they arrested another brother, Hashem Abedi, and their father, Ramadan Abedi.

Army bomb disposal units, together with Manchester police, attended a suspicious item in the city's Hulmes area on Thursday but Hopkins said the alert was not necessarily related to the ongoing investigation into Monday's bombing.

She later cancelled several concerts scheduled in London and Europe through June 5.

The 23-year-old, who suspended her tour and returned to her Florida home after the tragedy, said she planned a concert as "an expression of love for Manchester".

Grande's reps announced on Wednesday that the singer will be suspending her tour for at least two weeks.
