Manchester attack: What we know and don't know

London(CNN) An explosion ripped through a crowd of people leaving an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England on Monday night. The deadliest attack on British soil since the 2005 London bombings has left a country in mourning and police searching for answers.

Here's what we know -- and don't know -- so far.

What we know

• At least 22 people, including children, were killed in the blast, which rocked Manchester Arena at around 10:35 p.m. local time (5:30 p.m. ET) as fans were leaving the venue.

Three victims have been named, including an 8-year-old girl, an 18-year-old woman and a 26-year-old man.

• At least 59 people were injured. Police said that victims were taken to eight area hospitals for treatment.

• Police have named 22-year-old Salman Abedi as the suspected bomber. He is believed to have died in the powerful blast but has not yet been identified by the coroner, according to police.

Abedi was born in the United Kingdom in 1994, according to Prime Minister Theresa May.

He is of Libyan descent, sources in Manchester's Libyan community told CNN.

• ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack, but offered no evidence to support the claim.

The UK raised its terrorism threat level to "critical" -- the highest level -- for the first time in a decade on Tuesday.

Prime Minister May warned that intelligence services believe an attack may be "imminent."

• Police have arrested a 23-year-old man in connection with the attack.

• Police have conducted at least two raids in Manchester as part of the investigation.

• An improvised explosive device is believed to have been used in the attack, police said.

• Arena representatives said that the explosion occurred outside the main concert area, in a "public space."

• The arena, built in 1995, has a capacity of about 21,000 people. It is not clear how many concertgoers were inside the venue on Monday evening.

What we don't know

• The motive: While police say they believe Abedi was working alone, they were investigating whether the attacker was part of a larger network or plot. Although ISIS claimed the bombing, the terror group did not mention a name and did not post a photo or provide any additional details.
