Dubai's Burj Khalifa lit up in the colors of Britain's Union flag to express solidarity for the Manchester attack yesterday.

At least 22 persons, including children, died and 59 were injured in a suicide terror attack that hit Manchester Arena on Monday night just as a concert by American pop singer Ariana Grande had ended. 

The illuminated Burj Khalifa was a tribute to the victims of the horrific attack.
