More than 300 survivors of the tragic 2017 bombing at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, which claimed the lives of 22 individuals, had their legal claim against Britain's domestic intelligence agency, MI5, dismissed by a special tribunal on Friday.
The bombing, carried out by suicide bomber Salman Abedi at the Manchester Arena on May 22, 2017, resulted in over 100 injuries, with many being children and teenagers attending the concert. Abedi, who died in the explosion, had been previously flagged as a 'subject of interest' by MI5 in 2014 but was later deemed low risk, leading to missed opportunities to prevent the attack.
