Hopefully,  the clearing will begin properly this time.

Manchester attack latest: Two more men arrested and controlled explosion
carried out as police probe 'network'

'Two men were arrested this morning in connection with Monday's terror attack in
Manchester as investigators probed a "network" linked to the suicide bomber.

One man was arrested after a property was searched in the Withington area of
Manchester, while another was detained elsewhere in the city, Greater Manchester
Police said.

The arrests take the total number of men in custody to eight after a series of raids
across Manchester, Wigan and Nuneaton, Warwickshire.
A woman had also been arrested in Manchester last night during an armed raid on
a block of flats in Blackley but was later released without charge. 

The arrests came after detectives carried out a controlled explosion as they searched
a property in the Moss Side area of Manchester in the early hours of Thursday.

Meanwhile, the father and brother of suicide bomber Salman Abedi were arrested in Libya. 
Abedi's father, Ramadan Abedi, was allegedly a member of the al-Qaeda-backed Libyan
Islamic Fighting group in the 1990s, according to a former Libyan security official,
Abdel-Basit Haroun.

The elder Abedi denied that he was part of the militant group and told The Associated
Press that his son was not involved in the concert bombing and had no connection to
militants...'
