A white transit van ploughed into a crowd of people on the bridge at speed shortly after 10pm. The three men then stabbed people with 12-inch knives at nearby Borough Market, with a transport police officer among those injured.
The London Ambulance Service said 48 people had been taken to five hospitals across the capital and a number of other people were treated at the scene.
On Sunday, British Prime Minister Theresa May summoned an urgent cabinet meeting to look into the situation.
