Eight-year-old girl dies in Manchester terror attack

An eight-year-old girl who become separated from her mother and sister during the Manchester terror attack has been confirmed dead. Saffie-Rose Roussos died from her injuries after a terrorist committed the atrocity at a concert by American singer Ariana Grande on Monday night.

Saffie’s parents are believed to run a fish and chip shop in Leyland, Lancs.

Saffie-Rose’s mother and sister, Lisa and her older sister Ashlee are being treated for shrapnel injuries in separate hospitals.

She is the second person to be confirmed dead, after it was confirmed Georgina Bethany Callander, 18, had died. (below, with Ariana Grande at an previous concert)

Do you remember the faces of the little girls who died at Beslan? To us they are innocents. To a certain interpretation of the Koran they, with their music, their smiles, their sense of fun, were mischief makers, set to sow discord in the land. Shameless, as ISIS called them earlier.
