A series of arson attacks targeting Jewish sites in London has alarmed the community and prompted a major counter-terrorism investigation.
The Chief Rabbi and UK officials have described the incidents as a 'sustained campaign of violence and intimidation' against British Jews, with several synagogues and Jewish-linked businesses attacked in recent weeks. Police are probing possible links to Iranian proxies, after an Iran-linked group claimed responsibility for some of the attacks. Authorities have increased security and visible policing around Jewish sites, while political and religious leaders have condemned the violence and called for action to address the root causes of antisemitism.
No injuries have been reported, but the incidents have heightened concerns about the safety of the Jewish community in the UK.

This is exactly why a strong Israel is so important—Jews need to know there’s a safe place for us when stuff like this happens. It’s outrageous that Iranian proxies feel bold enough to attack Jewish sites in London, of all places. The UK government needs to take this threat seriously and show zero tolerance for antisemitism, wherever it comes from.
