Britain raced Wednesday to track down a jihadist network suspected of orchestrating the Manchester concert attack, as the suicide bomber's father and brother were arrested in Libya and grisly information emerged of how he engineered the deaths of young pop fans. British soldiers fanned out to guard key sites as investigators tried to piece together the last movements of bomber Salman Abedi, a Manchester-born university dropout who died at the scene of Monday's explosion. Abedi's bomb killed 22 people, including children as young as eight attending the performance by US pop star Ariana Grande.
Donald Trump vowed Wednesday to use his US presidency to promote global peace after meeting Pope Francis, before heading into a high-stakes summit of the world's biggest military alliance. "Honor of a lifetime to meet His Holiness Pope Francis," a star-struck Trump wrote on Twitter before leaving Rome for Brussels and the next leg of his first overseas trip as US president. "I leave the Vatican more determined than ever to pursue PEACE in our world," the billionaire former reality TV star said.
