to carry out his of the attack —— abedi.2017 was a watershed moment. manchester arena broke the mould, really. it was an attack on children. it was an attack on people out socialising. a suicide bomber slipped through the nets of police and security. i did not want to feel let down, and i was really let down by them. we live in times where terrorism happens. it needs to be in the forefront of people's minds. now, past weaknesses have been exposed. everybody concerned with security at the arena should have been - doing theirjob in the knowledge that a terrorist attack might - occur on that night. they were not. this inquiry has rightly found that we were failed on every level. but do those weaknesses still exist? to be a steward, you canjust turn up and get a jacket and stand up at the event. they badge themselves as security, but it's as far removed from security as you can get. this has to be a wake—up. yeah, definitely. definitely. police emergency, hello? there has been an explosion at manchester arena. was anybody injure

you can see abedi arriving at the train station next door. the toilets and he is still lugging his heavy bag around. this is where you can see him in the lift. he seems to be fiddling with the wires of his bomb here. it is chilling to watch it so clearly, the images are so clear. you can see him so well. i just sort of want to reach through the screen and stop him. this was the route abedi took on his final walk down into the crowd. he was said to be on his phone, smiling as he crossed the floor and detonated his bomb. in total, abedi was in and around the arena complex for two hours and one minute before the explosion. he waited in the foyer for 58 minutes before detonation. how could he be in plain sight for so long? why did nobody in authority stop him? people bereaved and hurt by this want the enquiry to answer those questions. i don't know how close i was to death on the night. i lost a lot of blood. maybe it is good that i have got no memories of it. 0k, and look... that is what we want. keep pushing, push, push, push. three, two, one,

a report into the manchester arena attack four years ago has concluded that the bomber, salman abedi,illed and hundreds were injured when abedi blew himself up in the lobby at the end of an ariana grande concert in may 2017. our correspondent, judith moritz reports from the inquiry. there's been an explosion at manchester arena! is anybody injured? yes, loads! chaos and devastation in the moments after the bomb. the aftermath was horrific. but the details of what happened before the explosion are distressing, too. the chairman of the manchester arena inquiry didn't hold back today in his criticism of those responsible for keeping concert—goers safe. i was urged by everybody to avoid looking for scapegoats. i have not looked to blame anyone, but where, having considered the evidence, i considered that individuals have fallen below a proper standard in carrying out their important roles in protecting concert—goers, i have said so. the families of those who died learned today there were serious shortcomings, notjust by individuals, but the police and private companies responsible for sec

the report says salman abedi should have been identified as a threat.lights a series of missed opportunities to spot the threat and intervene before he carried out the suicide attack in may 2017 which killed 22 people and injured hundreds more. the operators of the manchester arena, the security firm showsec and british transport police were all blamed for those missed opportunities. 15 minutes before the bomb was detonated, a member of the public had raised concerns about abedi to security at the arena. the report calls for urgent improvements to existing security arrangements at the manchester arena and supports the introduction of a new martyn�*s law, named after one of the victims of the attack, martyn hett. the law would force all public venues to have some level of counterterrorism measures in place. the chair of the inquiry panel, sirjohn saunders, said mistakes and shortcomings allowed the attack, but overall responsibility for it rested with abedi. there were serious shortcomings in the security provided by those organisations which had respons
