London attack: Six killed in vehicle and stabbing incidents.

'Six people have been killed and at least 48 injured in a terror incident in London in
which three male attackers were shot dead by police.

A white van hit pedestrians on London Bridge at about 22:00 BST on Saturday, then
three men got out and stabbed people in nearby Borough Market.
Police said the three men were wearing fake bomb vests.

One of those hurt is a police officer who was stabbed after going to help.
His injuries are not life-threatening.

The Conservatives, Labour and the SNP [Scottish National Party] have suspended national
general election campaigning and the prime minister is chairing a meeting of the government's
Cobra emergency committee.

Theresa May described Saturday night's events as "dreadful", while Labour leader
Jeremy Corbyn called them "brutal and shocking".
London Mayor Sadiq Khan said it was "a deliberate and cowardly attack on innocent
Londoners", but the capital remained the "safest global city" and Londoners would not
be cowed by terrorism.

It is the third terror attack in the UK in three months following the car and knife attack in
Westminster in March, which left five people dead, and the Manchester bombing less
than two weeks ago, in which 22 people were killed.

Metropolitan Police Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said it was believed there
were only three attackers involved and the explosive vests they were wearing were "hoaxes".
One social media user posted a photograph appearing to show an attacker lying on
the ground outside a pub in the food market, with the fake vest visible...'
