Police say the deadly attack on a synagogue in Manchester has been declared a terrorist incident
Two people died in the car and stabbing attack, while four others are in hospital
Police say the attacker was stopped from entering the synagogue by the bravery of security staff and worshippers – here’s what else they said
Meanwhile, counter-terror officers say they believe they know the identity of the attacker – who was shot dead within seven minutes of 999 being called; two other people have been arrested
Video of the incident shows police shouting “get back – he has a bomb!” but officers later confirm the device was “not viable”
Police say a “large number of people” were worshipping at the Heaton Park synagogue – today is Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar
One witness tells the BBC the police gave the suspect “a couple of warnings – he didn’t listen so they opened fire”
Meanwhile, Keir Starmer has chaired an emergency Cobra meeting after saying that extra police will be deployed at synagogues across the country
