British Police is stopping intelligence sharing about Monday’s suicide bombing with U.S. authorities, after a series of leaks by the Americans.
The first leak came barely 24 hours after the attack, with the U.S. media releasing the name of the bomber, Salman Abedi.
The action got Home Secretary Amber Rudd complaining, saying she was irritated by the disclosure, in what was against the UK’s wishes and asking that such leaks should not happen again.
