Ariana Grande has sent “light and warmth” to the survivors of the Manchester Arena terrorist attack on a day of remembrance one year since 22 people were killed at one of her U.K. concerts. Terrorist Salman Abedi detonated a bomb at the end of the concert on May 22, 2017, killing 22 and injuring hundreds of others. “Thinking of you all today and every day 🐝 I love you with all of me and am sending you all of the light and warmth I have to offer on this challenging day,” Grande wrote on Twitter, including a bee emoji—the symbol of Manchester. Remembrance events in the United Kingdom will include a service at Manchester Cathedral and a national minute’s silence. Manchester’s local newspaper printed the names of each victim on its front page marking the tragic anniversary.
Today we come together, we remember each of the 22 people whose lives were taken & we re-commit to supporting their families & all affected. pic.twitter.com/8CCp8Vwf5B
