British officials are accusing the United States of leaking to the news media details about the investigation into Monday’s suicide bombing in Manchester, which killed 22 people. The officials say they’ll no longer share information with the U.S., after U.S. law enforcement agencies released information and pictures about the investigation before British agencies did so. U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May says she’ll raise the issue when she meets with President Trump today during a NATO summit in Brussels. The leaks come as British authorities have arrested a total of eight men suspected of being connected to the attack, including suspected bomber Salman Abedi’s brother, Ismail. Abedi was a 22-year-old British man whose parents emigrated from Libya. Abedi’s brother Hashem and his father have also been arrested by special forces in Libya.
