Manchester News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
On June 15, 1996, Manchester endured its deadliest bomb since WWII when the IRA detonated a 3,300-pound device near Marks & Spencer, leveling buildings within half a mile and injuring hundreds—yet miraculously no one died, thanks to a lightning-fast police evacuation of 80,000 people in just 90 minutes. Though the blast cost £700 million and remains unsolved, it ironically sparked Manchester’s regeneration. Now, SEFF is holding a memorial service on June 14 at 5:30 PM during Evensong at the Cathedral to honor survivors, emergency responders, and the city’s resilience—reminding us never to forget the human toll of terror.
