In Pictures: Night of terror in London

Seven people were killed and dozens more injured on Saturday (June 3) when a van rammed into pedestrians on London Bridge, and three men wielding knives got out and started stabbing people. All three assailants were later shot dead by police officers responding to the incident, which came 12 days after a bombing in Manchester.
