UK raises national terror threat level after the stabbing of 2 Jewish men

The British government has declared antisemitism in the U.K. an emergency and announced plans to spend millions on increasing security around Jewish sites. Security services raised the U.K.'s official terror threat level from substantial to severe after a stabbing attack that injured two Jewish men. Severe means an attack is considered highly likely in the next six months. This follows a string of arson attacks and a double stabbing in London’s Golders Green neighborhood. Two Jewish men were seriously injured and a suspect has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. Authorities are investigating possible links to Iranian proxies. Some say the government hasn’t done enough and there are calls for pro-Palestinian marches to be banned.
