London on Edge: Security Tightened Around Israeli Embassy After Suspected Toxic Attack Scare

Police are responding to a security threat at the Israeli embassy in London following the discovery of a series of items in London’s Kensington Gardens.

 

The Counter Terrorism Policing London unit said it has been made aware of a video posted online in which a group says it has attacked the embassy with drones containing hazardous materials.

 

The embassy has not been targeted, and immediate investigations are being made to determine the credibility of the video and the items’ connection to it.

Police said they do not believe there is any heightened threat to public safety at present, but advised people to stay away from the scene until the inquiries are complete.
