London Attacks; British Police Say Three Attackers Have Been Killed

At least one of the suspects has been shot dead by police. Another individual, seen in a photograph on the ground nearby, may also be one of the attackers. On Saturday night, a vehicle ran over several pedestrians on London Bridge, and individuals in the vehicle attacked people with knives. British police say these attacks at 'London Bridge' and 'Borough Market', a nearby area, were terrorist attacks. The attacks occurred four days before the UK general elections. Two weeks prior, during a suicide attack at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, another UK city, 22 people were killed and over 60 were injured. According to initial police reports, London police believe that the attacks were carried out by 'three attackers'. In addition to the three attackers, six people have been killed. Police say all attackers have been neutralized. The attackers wore something resembling explosive vests that were not real. Anti-terrorism forces are investigating the incident. Reports indicate that a group of attackers in a vehicle sped towards citizens crossing London Bridge, running over several. They then attacked people gathered in nearby bars and restaurants in Borough Market with knives. British officials have labeled the attacks as 'terrorist'. Security forces have responded to the area, and clashes have occurred. Gunfire and loud explosions have also been reported from the Borough area. BBC reports that more than one person has been killed in the attacks. The Sun has reported the death toll as seven. The emergency center has reported the transfer of at least 20 people to the hospital. At least one suspect has been shot dead by police. Another individual seen in a photograph on the ground nearby may also be one of the attackers. Police are surrounding London Bridge. Sky News reports that police are unsure whether all attackers and suspects in the London Bridge and Borough Market attacks have been killed or arrested: 'They cannot yet confirm whether all terrorists have been stopped.' This news outlet has again urged the public to remain vigilant, evacuate the danger area, hide, and provide information. Reuters reports that police have not yet officially commented on the attackers or Sky News' report. Civilians, under police and security forces' supervision, are seen leaving the areas where the attacks occurred with their hands raised. The London emergency center reports that at least 20 injured individuals have been transferred to the hospital, with some receiving treatment on-site. The location of the attacks has been mapped by Sky News. BBC reports that in a photo, one of the suspects from Saturday's attacks is seen after being shot by police. Another man is also seen on the ground nearby. This photo was taken around one of the pubs in the Borough area, near London Bridge. Three major hospitals in London have stated that following Saturday night's attacks, while 'events in central London are still ongoing,' they are under surveillance for the safety of staff and patients and have been locked down. The U.S. Department of State condemned the 'cowardly attacks on innocent civilians in London.' Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, condemned the attacks and described them as 'barbaric.'
