Overview
- The Golders Green stabbing, which police say targeted Jews on Wednesday, left Shloime Rand, 34, and Norman Shine, 76, injured.
- Suspect Essa Suleiman, 45, is in custody charged with attempted murder, and counterterror detectives are leading what police call an antisemitic terror investigation.
- Officials raised the national threat level to grave, and the U.S. Embassy urged Americans in London to stay alert, keep a low profile, and review personal security plans.
- Ministers announced £25 million to harden security at Jewish schools, synagogues, and community centres, with extra police patrols in areas with large Jewish populations.
- Keir Starmer called for tougher policing of protest chants viewed as antisemitic on Saturday, as protests and earlier arson attacks on Hatzola ambulances fuel fear in Jewish neighbourhoods.
