Another arrest has been made in connection with Manchester's suicide

bombing. British police believe they have

made "immense progress" in the Manchester suicide bombing

investigation with many They are very significant, these

arrests and we are very happy we have got some of the key players we

are concerned about but that is The Egyptian president says

the army has targeted a jihadist training camp,

in retaliation for an attack on Coptic Christians

which killed 28 people. We understand the president said

the government will take the utmost measures to guarantee the safety of

Christians but a lot of people here Tough talks at the G7 as leaders

reach agreement on extremism - but no deal on climate change

as the US mulls over its position. The BBC gets exclusive access to

incredible footage showing what young Western explorers discovered

nearly 100 years ago. British police have made another

arrest in connection with the terrorist attack in Manchester. A

total of 11 people have now been arrested. Despite progress in the

investigation the terrorist threat in the UK remains at a critical

level. And already vast investigation,

still expanding. Each day counter-terrorism

detectives raid more properties in Manchester,

cutting through the shutters of this It was run by this man,

a cousin of the Manchester bomber. Forjani was arrested earlier

in the week with at least Police also raided another house

in the middle of the night, bringing the number of people

in custody to eight, all men, mostly Libyan

and aged between 18 and 38. They are very significant

these arrests. We are happy we have our hands

on some of the key players There is still a little

bit more to do. The bomber, Salman Abedi,

came back to Manchester Renting a flat in this

block, he had bought many of the ingredients

for his device. It was here he spent his last

weekend, putting his bomb together, making the final preparations

to attack a concert Detectives say they have made very

significant finds and crucially believe they have captured a large

part of his terrorist network. We have hundreds of officers that

are working on this investigation from across the national

counterterrorism police network and we have seized

thousands of exhibits I think it is fair to say there has

been enormous progress with the investigation

but still a lot of work to do. I understand the finds include

bomb making chemicals but because of concerns

about what might be still out there, the threat level

will remain at critical. The Home Secretary says people

can expect much higher security at the 1,300 events

across the country this I hope that they will take comfort

from that, be able to feel more secure because we must not let this

terrible terrorist incident Let us carry on this bank holiday

weekend with our family and friends. Already people getting away

for the weekend can expect to find armed officers patrolling trains

outside London for the first time. As the investigation

into Salman Abedi's atrocity continues, we learn more

about his father who was detained He is believed to have had strong

connections to this man, Abu Qatada, who was suspected of being a senior

Al-Qaeda member in London. This businessman says the bomber's

father was always seeing He was one of his supporters

this man told us. Whenever he went to London,

they used to meet up. Detectives do not pretend

to have the full picture yet, they are growing in confidence,

but for now, going into one of the most important

weekends of the summer, Daniel Sandford, BBC

News, Manchester. Ariana Grande has issued a fresh

statement. All of those who died in Monday's

attack have now been named. Megan Hurley, who was just 15 years

old, is the 22nd victim. The BBC's Danny Savage

reports from Manchester on a community grieving for lost

family and friends. People queued to buy flowers

in remembrance of strangers. It was inconceivable to try

and understand how hard the families are feeling,

especially with the children. Martyn Hett was murdered

on Monday night. The outgoing Coronation Street

Superfan was well known online. As these possibilities got less

and less you still had some hope there would be something

and when we got the call that confirmed he had died in this

explosion it is indescribable, The final and 22nd victim was named

today, 15-year-old Megan Hurley. Her brother was also

seriously injured. A note on the family

business only hints A picture of a horror which faced

first responders has also emerged. On the right is paramedic

Adam Williams who is worried about the long-term effect on him

and his colleagues. That is a big concern for us all,

possibly myself, there will be some And I do worry my colleagues

will suffer the same. There is a sombre and

respectful atmosphere here. It may be four days since

the atrocity but that is the blink of an eye and people are trying

to come to terms with what happened 22 lives lost, countless

others changed for ever. Families left with just memories

of those who will never come home. A development from Egypt, the

president says the Army has targeted at jihadist training camp in

retaliation for an attack on Coptic Christians. Six air strikes were

directed at a camp in Libya. This is where the Egyptian Government

believes that militants responsible for the attack on Coptic Christians

were trained but as yet no group has claimed responsibility for the

attack in which at least 28 people were killed, including many

children. They were pilgrims. This is the third major attack on Coptic

Christians in Egypt in recent months.

The broken windows and scattered belongings are testament to an

attack that was merciless and highly co-ordinated. There were multiple

gunmen who escaped across the sand in the off-road vehicles. Relatives

of the dead said the authorities should be doing more to protect

Christians who are obviously at risk. This was the scene just last

month after Church bombings in northern Egypt. A nationwide state

of emergency was announced and security was stepped up but many

Coptic Christians say the authorities provide more lip service

and proper protection. Dozens of churchgoers have been killed in

recent months by the so-called Islamic State. It says that

Christians are its favourite prey and has vowed to keep up the

attacks. As well as the new threat from Islamic State many believers

complain of an older problem, discrimination. Among members of

Egypt's Christian community, the largest in the Middle East, there is

anger and fear, and once again there is great.

We are going to discuss those attacks further with a bishop from

the orthodox Church in the UK. We are hearing about the air force

carrying out strikes on the jihadist is that they believe carried out

those attacks south of Cairo. The Coptic Christians in Egypt still

feel that they are not being helped, that they are not being helped

enough by the authorities, they feel targeted. It is not a matter of

wanting to be helped. We are not looking for privileged treatment but

we are looking for security and citizenship that embraces everyone

and holds everyone accountable. I am sure of the details of these

strikes. It is a strategic decision. What is more important is to deal

the mindset in Egypt that has become such a fertile ground for things

like this to take part in. A mindset that is so exclusive and narrow that

it not only doesn't think that Christians should be equal, it is

intolerant of their presence. That this right they become so

dehumanised and objectified, that even children going on the monastery

pilgrimage can become means to an end and can become targeted, on such

a day of family joy and a spiritual experience. They were in an isolated

area. From the previous attacks. There have been so many attacks.

They have been targeting churches, and here we have this pilgrimage

with children on that. It was a very isolated area. Should the half and

guys with them? What is the solution? Monasteries are one of the

pivotal part of spiritual life in Egypt, they are all isolated. On any

given public holiday you may have up to 10,000 pilgrims at any given

monastery. Armed guards would not be able to satisfy all that. But again,

we saw a tragic event here in Manchester just last week. We have

seen things across Europe. Trains will happen. There are those who

will devalue human life. What we need to do is deal with the

education and the poverty and the things that have two cure illness

that is so intolerant of a sizeable community. We are talking about

13-15 million people in Egypt, 15% of the population. The president has

declared a three-month state of emergency. What else can he do? How

do you achieve a change of mindset? This is a generation long exercise.

You cannot expect things to change immediately that we can expect a

more robust investigation, holding people to account, so it becomes a

deterrent to those who may want to follow this end this or any other

way. Thank you for talking to us. At least 80 people are thought

to have died in Syria following what activists claim

was a US-led coalition airstrike. The attack is said to have taken

place in a town The Syrian Observatory

for Human Rights claims the victims are relatives of members

of the so-called Islamic State group The Observatory says it's

the second strike on the town after more than a dozen people

died on Wednesday. Our Diplomatic Correspondent James

Landale reports from Sicily. There is a new package of measures

they have agreed, identify, remove, block extremist material that is

seen to foster hatred, but also material that is used to organise

terrorist plots. The question there is hope internet companies respond.

Can they put pressure on these companies that will make a

difference? They also agreed to do more to tackle the problem of

foreign fighters. Note that so-called Islamic State is losing

territory in Syria and Iraq it means they say that this threat is now

evolving. More foreign fighters are now coming back to other countries,

what more can the G7 do to share expertise to help countries in the

region identify these people, share intelligence, all of those kind of

things. They also agreed to do more to try and tackle terrorist

financing. They have agreed a fee package of things to do.

On a lighter note, one relationship seems to be blossoming between two

particular world leaders. The interesting thing about this

summit is it is a new era because four of the seven leaders

are here for the first time, one was Macron and

he got on very well, apparently, with the

Canadian Prime Minister. A lot of photos of them engaging

together has led a lot of people to say this is the diplomatic

bromance of the summit. But it illustrates the purpose

of these events which is to give leaders an opportunity to engage

without the usual encumbrance of the officials and things that

come with other summits so they can have a few private moments to sit

around a table and develop Those that will matter

in the future when, for example, they might disagree,

it means they have that personal relationship which they do not have

at the moment because many of them Lots more to come, including this

Sports news. Pep Guardiola's Manchester City are spending $55

million to sign Ben and also that from French champions Monaco. The

22-year-old will join the club at the start of July. He made more than

50 appearances for Monaco this season including two appearances

against Manchester City. He has featured 12 times for his country.

He was integral to the Monaco side that reached the semifinals of the

Champions League before they eventually lost to Juventus.

She has recovered from a serious stab injury. There is flash

photography coming up. She is also set to compete at Wimbledon this

summer. She has not laid competitively since the attack. She

will be seeded 15th fax to her protected ranking.

This weekend Monaco hosts their latest Grand Prix. Nico Rosberg the

reigning champion will not be involved, he retired after winning

the championship last time. Our correspondent caught up with them

and asked him if he would miss racing. I am completely fulfilled in

that sense. That chapter is closed for me. I am looking forward now. I

am excited about what is to come. Even excited, to be honest, looking

back. For me it was the perfect ending, the perfect career, what I

wanted to achieve. I am very happy and Blackie also to have that

feeling and nice to have the opportunity at 31 to open up another

international sport but Britain has never won sailing's America's Cup,

this year and Ainsley hopes to change that. He and his team are

hoping to win it. Qualifying has been delayed by 24 hours because of

high winds in the North Atlantic. Ainsley was part of the team which

won the last competition four years ago. It becomes a life of session.

It is a complex game, setting up a new team. You need to raise funding,

find the correct skill set, bring all that together, it does take

time. It is hard as a new team to get into a dominant position in the

America's Cup. That is what we are aiming to achieve. We have come a

long way in the last 30 years. Whether or not they can achieve that

in this particular cup remains to be seen. The biggest achievement if we

can pull this off would be to win the America's Cup for Britain to

stop look at our sporting maritime heritage, it is the one thing that

is missing. It would be huge. BBC News has been given exclusive
