Daesh claimed responsibility for Monday's deadly attack at the Manchester Arena and said it was carried out with an explosive device planted at the concert, according to a statement the group posted on Telegram.

"One of the soldiers of the Caliphate was able to place an explosive device within a gathering of the Crusaders in the city of Manchester," the statement said.


At least 22 people were killed and dozens more injured Monday in an explosion at a concert by pop star Ariana Grande in the northern city of Manchester.
