UK Charges Two Iranians Over Yom Kippur Plot
Charges have been brought against two Iranian men in London on suspicion of carrying out terrorist crimes, related to an alleged conspiracy to target the Jewish community in Manchester on the eve of Yom Kippur, a year after a deadly attack on a Jewish synagogue in the city. The police stated that the men (aged 36 and 34) were detained on September 20 and had been in contact with a third person in Iran, with two charges related to the conspiracy being filed against them. These allegations come amid a wave of antisemitic attacks in Britain over the past year, following assaults on synagogues and Jewish buildings. Additional security forces have been deployed to protect Jewish areas. This has been accompanied by other arrests related to an attempt to target an airbase used by the U.S. military, though authorities emphasized that there is no direct connection between these incidents.
