More than 250 survivors of the Manchester Arena bomb are taking legal action against MI5, lawyers representing them have confirmed.
Twenty-two people died and hundreds more were injured in the blast in May 2017.
Legal teams representing many survivors injured in the explosion said they have submitted a group claim to the Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT).
MI5 said it would not comment on ongoing legal proceedings.
In March 2023, the director-general of MI5 Ken McCallum said he was "profoundly sorry" the security service did not prevent the Manchester Arena attack.
His comments followed the findings of a public inquiry which concluded MI5 missed a significant chance to take action that might have stopped the bombing.

They should sue the arena too … the security guards there were a fucking joke.
