After the recent tragedy in Manchester, England has been struck again with attacks now in London.  There have been a reported 7 deaths in addition to dozens of individuals injured.  Police are labeling these incidents as terror attacks.  Within minutes of being alerted, police arrived to the scene and killed the attackers who possessed knives and were wearing fake suicide vests.  British detectives are still investigating whether these attackers were part of a larger network.  In the meantime, this article presents the facts that are known as of right now.  England has been in international news a lot lately, and this only further contributes to the distress the country has been under.  It's heartbreaking to hear about these tragedies that have taken place so close to each other.
