Met Police chief says it's too early' to blame Iran for Golders Green attack
"Sir Mark Rowley stated, 'Britain's Jewish community has in recent years been increasingly targeted by individuals, groups and hostile states, intent on spreading fear, hate and harm.'"
"'The rapid growth in recent years of Iranian state threats is grave: hostile state surveillance activity, twenty disrupted plots, and recent attempted attacks on the Iranian diaspora.'"
"'It is too early for me to attribute last night's attack in Golders Green to the Iranian state... but whoever was responsible, the impact is serious.'"
The Metropolitan Police are investigating an arson attack on Jewish community ambulances, believed to be linked to an Islamist group with potential Iranian state connections. Four ambulances were destroyed, and the incident is classified as an antisemitic hate crime. Sir Mark Rowley highlighted the increasing threats to Britain's Jewish community from hostile individuals and states. He noted the serious implications of the attack and the ongoing investigation into the suspects, including a claim of responsibility from the Islamist group Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia.
