Southport Stabbing

The stabbings at a children's dance party on July 29 led to a wave of unrest fuelled by misinformation, particularly the false narrative that the suspect was an illegal migrant. 

A woman stabbed and wounded five people in a bus in western Germany on Friday, police said, one week after a deadly knife attack that shook the country.

German police said on Saturday that they were still searching for an unknown assailant hours after he killed three people and wounded others in a stabbing attack at a festival in the western city of Solingen.

Hundreds of mourners gathered Sunday in Southport, northwest England, for the funeral of a nine-year-old girl killed in last month's knife attack, which sparked more than a week of nationwide disorder.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will hold an emergency meeting with police chiefs on Monday after days of violent anti-immigration protests intensified, with buildings and vehicles torched and hotels holding asylum seekers targeted.

Unrest related to misinformation about the mass stabbing last Monday in the northwestern English seaside town of Southport has hit multiple towns and cities, with anti-immigration demonstrators clashing with police.

There were angry scenes in London on Wednesday evening as thousands of anti-immigration protesters gathered near Starmer's Downing Street office and residence chanting "save our kids" and "we want our country back".

Merseyside Police Chief Constable Serena Kennedy confirmed that two children died in the attack, with a third confirmed dead on Tuesday morning.

Taylor Swift said she was "completely in shock" on Tuesday after mass stabbings in Southport, northern England, during a dance class themed around the US pop star left three girls dead.

Flowers, teddy bears and tributes were left near the scene of Monday's stabbing spree at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport, near Liverpool, that also saw two adults and six children critically injured and three more children hurt.

The nine-year-old girl died as a result of injuries sustained in the knife attack on Monday, as Merseyside Police also confirmed the two earlier fatalities were girls aged six and seven.
