LONDON: American singer Ariana Grande has reacted to the twin terror attacks in London today, in which at least six people were killed and 30 others injured.

The attack comes just two weeks after a suicide bomber killed 22 people at Grande's concert in Manchester.

The singer, who was preparing for today's charity concert that she had organised to raise funds for those affected by the Manchester Arena attack, tweeted, "Praying for London."
