Thousands hold minute's silence in UK

The UK held a minute of silence on Tuesday in memory of the victims of the terror attack that hit London over the weekend, leaving seven dead and dozens injured.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan led the proceedings at London Bridge, where on Saturday three assailants drove a van into crowds before entering nearby Borough Market and attacking people with knives, reports Efe.

Huge crowds gathered on the bridge to commemorate the victims despite pouring rain.
