British police arrested two men on Wednesday in connection with an arson attack on four ambulances belonging to a Jewish charity, which authorities are investigating as an antisemitic hate crime. The two men, aged 45 and 47, were arrested on suspicion of arson and are being questioned.

Police have not declared the incident to be a terror attack, but are investigating a claim of responsibility by a group with potential links to Iran. The blaze on Monday in London’s Golders Green neighbourhood consumed four ambulances belonging to a Jewish volunteer organisation.
