6:35Now PlayingThe security service MI5 missed a significant chance to take action that might have prevented the Manchester Arena attack, an inquiry has found.
Chairman Sir John Saunders said the reasons for the missed opportunity included a "failure" by an MI5 officer to act swiftly enough.
Twenty-two people were killed when Salman Abedi detonated a homemade bomb after a concert on 22 May 2017.
The youngest was just eight years old. The public inquiry found Abedi was probably assisted by someone in Libya.
It is the first time an official conclusion has been made about the possible involvement of other people from abroad.
