King Charles visits Southport to pay tribute to stabbing victims

King Charles III visited Southport, a town in northwest England, to pay tribute to the victims and families affected by a mass stabbing that occurred on July 29. The attack resulted in the deaths of three young girls: Bebe King (6), Elsie Dot Stancombe (7), and Alice Dasilva Aguiar (9), and left several others seriously injured. The incident sparked nationwide riots and racist attacks targeting Muslims and migrants. During his visit, Charles met with surviving children and their families, and also stopped to read tributes and view flowers and toys left in memory of the victims. He was greeted by hundreds of people, including some waving union flags and shouting "God save the king." Charles's visit was part of his efforts to show support and solidarity with the community affected by the tragedy.
