London Arson Attack on Jewish Ambulances

Two men were arrested by the United Kingdom — Metropolitan Police in London in connection with an arson attack on four ambulances belonging to Hatzola Northwest, a Jewish volunteer organization. The incident, which occurred in Golders Green, is being investigated as an antisemitic hate crime. Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiyya, a group with suspected links to Iran, claimed responsibility for the attack. The United Kingdom has accused Iran of using criminal proxies for attacks on European soil, and United Kingdom — Security Service has disrupted numerous Iran-backed plots. The attack has further strained the Jewish community's sense of security amid rising antisemitic incidents in the United Kingdom.
