Britain's chief rabbi has declared that British Jews are confronting a 'sustained campaign of violence and intimidation' after an attempted arson at a London synagogue. This statement follows a series of attacks on Jewish institutions in the capital, including a fire bomb incident at the Kenton United Synagogue previously claimed by an Iran-linked group. Counterterrorism police are investigating the latest incident as part of a broader pattern of anti-Jewish violence. The chief rabbi's warning highlights growing concerns over the safety of the Jewish community in the UK.
