LONDON – Authorities in Britain announced Monday that they have detained a 37-year-old individual as part of their ongoing investigation into multiple incidents targeting Jewish facilities across northwest London.
The arrest marks the latest development in a month-long investigation that has now resulted in 26 individuals being taken into custody. Counter-terrorism units have been leading the probe into various incidents including arson attacks and other criminal acts directed at Jewish-affiliated locations throughout the area.
“He was arrested on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts and has been taken to a London police station for questioning,” the police said in a statement.
