On April 18th, counter-terror police in London jumped on an arson attack against the Jewish business in Hendon, North West London, last night around 10, 31 PM. A guy walked up with a plastic bag holding three bottles of fluid, set it on fire outside the shop, but it didn't fully ignite. Just minor damage to the front, no one hurt, and he bolted. The same Iran-backed Islamist group, Harakat Ashab, Al Yaman, Al Islamia, claimed it with the telegram video showing the flames as the attacker fled. This crew also took credit for launching drones loaded with what they called radial active material toward the Israeli embassy on Friday. They've owned up to six attacks since early April, ramping up their ops. Communities are on edge, especially after a similar arson on Jewish ambulances in Golders Green last month. Police commanders say they're not linking this one yet, but see the patterns, so counter-terror leads the probe. Local leaders voiced worries, and cops are boosting patrols with arm units and special teams to spot threats early.

Experts think this group recruits our mind low lives, be a telegram, paying in crypto like hired hands for bigger players, maybe Iranian proxies. They're logo echoes groups like Hezbollah, and they've hit Jewish sites across Europe from Belgium to Amsterdam. Videos spread fast on pro-Iran channels, showing real intent even if damage stays light. Police urge anyone with info or footage to call 101, quoting Cad 8987 slash 17 April, or Crime Stoppers anonymously. They're relentless, promising to hunt these cowards down, and keep London streets safe no matter what.
