The world mourned with Manchester earlier this week when singer, Ariana Grande, stood on stage at a tribute concert in the same city that was affected by the attack last month. Not too far off, school girls laid flowers at a vigil held to commemorate the victims of another terror attack on London Bridge and Borough Market.

The attacks took place just days ahead of Britain’s general election, placing mounting pressure on Prime Minister Theresa May to address security issues.

In India, children gathered around a candle-lit vigil as part of a “Save Trees” awareness campaign days after World Environment Day. In China, people bowed their heads in remembrance of the victims of the bloody Tiananmen Square crackdown 28 years ago.
