London Arson Probed as Hate Crime

London Arson Probed as Hate Crime

The fire in Hendon occurred late Friday night, prompting an immediate response from emergency services and specialist investigators.

While no injuries were reported, the Jewish community has been urged to 'remain calm' as police step up patrols near sensitive sites.

This latest incident follows the torching of four Jewish community ambulances last month and an attack on a nearby synagogue.

Authorities are currently reviewing CCTV footage to identify a suspect seen fleeing the scene with a bag of fluids.
