The Iran-linked Ashab Al-Yamim terror group claimed responsibility on Monday for the arson attack on four Hatzolah ambulances in Golders Green, London, overnight Sunday.

The terror group released a video claiming responsibility for the attack, but unlike its previous videos, the footage did not show the suspects carrying out the act.

The group, previously unknown until this month, previously claimed responsibility for recent attempted attacks on shuls in Belgium and Rotterdam and on a Jewish school in Amsterdam. It also claimed responsibility for an attack in Greece on March 11, but no such attack has been reported.

 

The arson occurred around 1:35 a.m. local time. Security camera footage shows three men near the ambulances, and seconds later, the vehicles burst into flames. No one was injured, but the ambulances and nearby buildings sustained damage.

The Israeli embassy in the UK referred to the incident in a statement on Monday morning, saying: “Antisemitism is rampant on the streets of London. Firebombing ambulances is not an anomaly; it is the consequence of years of hate-filled marches, incitement, and intimidation being tolerated in plain sight.”

“Enough is enough. There must be a thorough investigation and decisive action to put an end to this climate of intimidation before it spirals further. Silence and inaction are no longer an option.”
