Ambulance arson in Golders Green deepens UK antisemitism fears
Four Hatzolah ambulances were set on fire outside a synagogue in Golders Green, London, with explosions shattering windows and residents evacuated; three ambulances were destroyed and another damaged. The incident is being treated as an antisemitic hate crime and is under counter-terror police investigation. Community leaders, including Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, condemned the attack and highlighted Hatzolah’s life-saving role, as security around Jewish sites increases amid a broader rise in UK antisemitic incidents shown by CST and Home Office data.
