Arson attacks target London Jews

A wave of arson attacks targeting Jewish and Israeli-owned premises in London has prompted a major counter-terrorism investigation.

The Chief Rabbi has warned of a 'sustained campaign of violence and intimidation' after the fifth such incident in a month occurred at a synagogue in Harrow.

Police are currently examining whether a pro-Iranian group, which claimed responsibility for previous attacks, is hiring local individuals to carry out the crimes.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has condemned the 'abhorrent' acts and vowed that the perpetrators will face the full force of the law.
