On May 22, 2017, a suicide bomber murdered 22 people at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England. That bomber had been rescued from Tripoli, Libya, by England’s Royal Navy in 2014, according to The Guardian.

The bomber detonated a home-made bomb in the foyer of the Manchester Arena; 19 people were immediately killed; three more died at the hospital; 200 more people were injured. The bomber, his brother, and roughly 100 other British citizens were evacuated from Tripoli by HMS Enterprise, taken to Malta, then returned to the United Kingdom in August 2014.
