FIFTY-TWO thousand petals fell in St Paul's Cathedral as tribute was paid to those who died in the July 7 terrorist attacks in London 20 years ago.

Saba Edwards, daughter of Behnaz Mozakka - who died on the Piccadilly line - and Thelma Stober - who survived the Aldgate bomb - struggled to contain their emotions as they read the names of the 52 people who died.

The moving tribute was paid during yesterday's memorial service that included readings by Mayor of London Sir Sadiq Khan, as well as a 1,200-strong congregation.

Four bombers targeted three Tube trains and a bus, killing 52 and injuring hundreds.
