Two Iranians charged over alleged UK terror plot
British police charged two Iranian men with preparing a terrorist act allegedly targeting Manchester’s Jewish community before Yom Kippur. Police said another man, believed to be in Iran, had been in contact with the accused. The charges remain allegations to be tested in court, and the reports did not describe any completed attack.
Why it matters
The case raises questions about cross-border direction of alleged threats against religious communities in Britain.
