A section of central London has been closed off, with emergency services in “biohazard suits” seen investigating after an Iran-linked group claimed to have used drones to deliver “radioactive and carcinogenic materials” into the Israeli embassy.

Specialist officers combed Kensington Gardens, onto which the Israeli embassy backs, on Friday over “discarded items” found in the park overnight that came as an Iran-linked group claimed it had launched an attack. The park was closed to the public with “hazardous” signs hung on the shut iron gates, and officers from the Metropolitan Police Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) response team in “biohazard suits”, the Ambulance Service hazardous area team, and the London Fire Brigade were all at the scene, The Daily Telegraph reports.

Counter-terrorism police were also present and said they were aware of the publication, on Thursday night, of a video to social media by Iran-linked group Ashab al-Yamin that claimed to have launched “radioactive and carcinogenic materials” into the embassy using drones. Police said they didn’t believe there was a wider risk to the public and the newspaper cited sources close to the investigation who called the attempted incident against the embassy “amateurish”.

Why? So the perps (alleged) can do a better job next time? The United Islamic Kingdumb will come around eventually. Sadly, not to our view point. It was a LOT of fun in the early 60's.

The French harbored Khomeini for 15 years.

There must be a ton of money from Iran sloshing around the UK. And money will buy you friends.

On a related note, here’s a story about Charles accepting a suitcase full of money from Qatar. One million euros, allegedly for his charitable foundation.

UK has been sold out by its ruling elite.
It is a lost cause
Forget about UK

not sure where the remaining good British people can go to escape the H3ll that UK is in for under sharia law and slavery or just a future of islamic terrorist attacks from within. Australia and Canada are headed strongly down the same road to perdition. USA is far along the same route and it is unclear whether the current administration can clean house and get the ship of state back on a positive course ...to be determined.

Quick, Britain. Call for the American intelligence agents to fly over. It took them only a few YEARS to get close to almost solving the case of the bomb left outside during the January 6 protests.

Although regular police do not carry weapons in London, they can call in specialized groups who are armed.

How it works in London——

“In London, only specially trained and accredited officers, known as Authorised Firearms Officers (AFOs), are allowed to carry weapons, not regular police. Roughly 2,500–2,600 out of over 34,000 Metropolitan Police officers are armed, primarily from the MO19 Specialist Firearms Command. They are deployed at high-risk locations, airports, or in armed response vehicles.”
