Counter-terror police are investigating another arson attack in Golders Green, north London.

A memorial wall commemorating anti-regime protesters killed in Iran was targeted in the attack in the early hours of Monday morning.

The wall is outside a synagogue on Limes Avenue, in a largely Jewish area of north London. It follows another alleged arson attack that saw four Jewish community ambulances destroyed in Golders Green in late March.
