UK enforces stricter knife purchase regulations online

The UK government is implementing stricter measures to purchase knives online after an 18-year-old man attacked and killed three girls in Southport last year during a dance class at a community center. Axel Rudakubana admitted on the first day of his trial that he was responsible for the attack, which also injured eight children and two adults, leading to days of unrest in the UK.

Rudakubana had purchased his knife on Amazon at age 17, despite it being prohibited. A court verdict is expected tomorrow.
