The UK's Metropolitan Police are investigating whether recent arson attacks on synagogues in London were committed by an Iranian proxy. This probe follows a claim of responsibility by the Iran-linked group Ashab al-Yamin for a fire bomb attack on the Kenton United Synagogue. The investigation is part of a broader counterterrorism effort amid warnings from Britain's chief rabbi of a 'sustained campaign of violence and intimidation' against the Jewish community.
