'Significant missed opportunities' to try to stop Manchester Arena bombing says report| ITV News

There was a "significant missed opportunity to take action" which could have prevented the Manchester Arena terror attack, a report has found.
Failures to obtain "actionable intelligence" on bomber Salman Abedi meant he was able to build a "devastatingly destructive" device for six months after watching a video posted online by Islamic State.
Communication breakdowns between MI5 and Counter Terrorism Police North West officers meant intelligence was not shared, Sir John Saunders concluded in his third and final report following the Manchester Arena Inquiry.
"The reasons for this significant missed opportunity included a failure by a Security Service officer to act swiftly enough," he added.
