Two of the London Bridge attackers have been named by Scotland Yard.

Khuram Shazad Butt and Rachid Redouane, both from Barking, were among a group of three attackers who killed seven and injured dozens more during Saturday's terror attack.

Police have said inquiries are ongoing to confirm the identity of the third attacker.

All three were shot dead by armed officers within eight minutes of the first emergency call being made.

Khuram Shazad Butt was a British citizen born in Pakistan.

The 27-year-old was known to the security services, but there was no evidence the attack was being planned.

He featured in a Channel 4 documentary 'The Jihadis Next Door'.

Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said an investigation into Mr Butt began in 2015, "however, there was no intelligence to suggest that this attack was being planned and the investigation had been prioritised accordingly".

Mr Redouane, 36, claimed to be of Moroccan and Libyan origin and was not known to authorities.

He also used the name Rachid Elkhdar and claimed he was 25.

Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley has appealed for anyone with information to contact police.

He said: "I would urge anyone with information about these men, their movements in the days and hours before the attack and the places they frequented to come forward."

"Work is ongoing to understand more about them, their connections and whether they were assisted or supported by anyone else", he added.

Mr Rowley claimed police are investigating 500 terror cases involving 3,000 "subjects of interest."

Additionally, there are around 20,000 individuals who are former subjects of interest.

He added: "The security and intelligence services and police have stopped 18 plots since 2013, including five since the Westminster attack two months ago.

"We would urge the public to be vigilant and to report any suspicious activity to the police by calling us in confidence on 0800 789321 or in an emergency calling 999."
