The terrorist bombing in Manchester killed 22 people and injured dozens after a concert featuring American singer Ariana Grande, reports CNN.

Before his London visit, Obama played golf in Scotland and stopped in Berlin, where he delivered a poignant message to Manchester alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby.
