    The suicide bomber who blew himself up at a pop concert killing 22 people including young children has been named as Salman Abedi.

    ISIS have claimed responsibility after the terrorist set off a ball bearing bomb at an Ariana Grande concert, in the worst terror attack Britain has seen since the 7/7 London bombings.

    Eight-year-old Saffie Roussos, 18-year-old Georgina Callander and 26-year-old John Atkinson were among those killed. Of the injured, at least 12 were children.

    There were 59 people taken to hospital, with 60 others treated at the scene.

    Traumatised witnesses have told how nuts and bolts tore into young music fans when the bomb was detonated in the foyer area of the Manchester Arena moments after a concert by the US popstar ended.

    The bomber - named today as 22-year-old Salman Abedi - was known to authorities. He died at the scene and police carried out a controlled explosion at what is believed to be his home during raids around the city today.

    Abedi, the son of an airport security worker, is a Mancunian of Libyan descent.

    Eight-year-old Saffie Rose Roussos (left), 18-year-old Georgina Callander (right) and 26-year-old John Atkinson have been named as three of the 22 victims of the suicide bombing. It is feared many children are among those killed, as well as parents who had accompanied their youngsters to the concert or were picking them up

    Police also raided a house where Abedi's brother, Ismail, lived and arrested a 23-year-old man, prompting speculation that Ismail had been detained.

    The police and security services are trying to establish whether Salman worked alone or was part of a wider network that helped him with the bomb.

    A school friend told MailOnline he had grown a beard when he last saw him and neighbours claimed he had been 'acting strangely' recently.

    Security sources have told MailOnline that initial analysis of the 'sophisticated' device suggests it was made by an expert.

    Abedi was born in Manchester on New Year's Eve 1994, the son of two Libyans who came to Britain to escape the Gaddafi regime.

    His father, Ramadan Abedi, is a former airport security worker, MailOnline can reveal.

    It is understood he has three siblings, two brothers, Ismail and Hashem and a sister, Jomana.

    The suicide bomber was heard chanting Islamic prayers in Arabic just weeks before the attack, a neighbour has revealed.

    Yes it is!!

    Ariana Grande licks donuts and declares she hates America

    Ariana Grande shares some donut shop PDA and partakes in few questionable antics including licking a few pastries with her background dancer Ricky Alvarez while no one is looking.
