Oxygen cylinders exploded. Windows shattered in nearby apartments. Residents were evacuated. And counter-terrorism police are now investigating a possible Iran link. This is what antisemitism looks like in 2026.In this breakdown, we cover:How four of Hatzola's six ambulances were deliberately targeted in a coordinated arson attack outside Machzike Hadath Synagogue in Golders Green — London's largest Jewish community How an Islamist group called Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia — with alleged links to Iran — claimed responsibility on Telegram, having previously claimed attacks on synagogues in Belgium and the Netherlands How antisemitic incidents across the UK have more than doubled since 2022 — with 3,700 incidents recorded in 2025 alone — and why the Jewish community says they have never felt more vulnerable How CCTV shows three hooded figures pouring accelerant onto the vehicles before fleeing — and why counter-terrorism police are now leading the investigation Why this attack — on a volunteer service that saves lives regardless of religion — represents something darker than antisemitism alone, and what it tells us about the global consequences of the Iran war landing on civilian doorsteps in Europe
