A fourth individual has been detained by British authorities in relation to an arson attack on ambulances serving the Jewish community, it emerged on Saturday. The arrest happened at a London court amid the hearing of three men already charged in the case.

The suspects, including two British nationals and a dual British-Pakistani citizen, are accused of setting fire to four ambulances associated with Hatzola, an emergency volunteer service. Their actions, described by Prime Minister Keir Starmer as a 'deeply shocking antisemitic arson attack,' have sparked widespread concern.

The SITE Intelligence website linked the arson to an Iran-aligned militant group, while counter-terrorism officers are pursuing the investigation. Although explosions damaged nearby windows, no injuries were reported. The climactic rise in attacks on Jewish entities follows the recent Gaza conflict.
