"The head of the Metropolitan Police stated that the force is investigating whether an Islamist group with possible Iranian state links was behind the arson attack."
"Gas canisters kept in the ambulances exploded after they were set alight, with nearby homes evacuated as a precaution."
"Commander Helen Flanagan said, 'We have been working around the clock since this appalling attack took place and this has led to these arrests being made this morning.'"
Two men, aged 47 and 45, were arrested on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life following an attack on volunteer-led ambulances in Golders Green. The incident occurred early Monday morning, resulting in the destruction of four ambulances from Hatzola. The arrests are part of an ongoing investigation, with police searching two addresses in north-west and central London. The Metropolitan Police is exploring potential links to an Islamist group with Iranian state connections, as gas canisters exploded during the attack, prompting evacuations.
