AP News:英国民众缅怀恐袭击遇难者

2017-06-07来源:和谐英语

This is AP News Minute. 

British police arrested a dozen people Sunday in a widening investigation after attackers using a van and large knives turned a Saturday night into a bloodbath and killed seven people in the heart of London. Shortly after the attack, President Donald Trump weighed in on Twitter, saying "we need the Travel Ban as an extra level of safety." 

Ariana Grande returned to the Manchester stage two weeks after a suicide bombing killed 22 victims at her concert in the same city. 60,000 fans attended the star-studded One Love Manchester concert. 

A Venezuelan musician and activist performed a concert in Caracas. The event was dubbed "the street concert for life" and was meant to be a protest against the regime of embattled President Nicolas Maduro. 

People in the UK have responded to the deadly London Bridge attack with sorrow and distinctly British humor, hailing a man seen walking away from the mayhem holding a pint of beer as a tongue-in-cheek symbol of defiance.
