‘Mosque arson disgraceful but not surprising’

Residents of an East Sussex town where a mosque was set on fire have called the attack “disgraceful” and said it represented a wider problem across the UK.

Two people inside the mosque in Phyllis Avenue, Peacehaven, managed to escape after the front entrance and a car parked outside were set alight on Saturday.

Sussex Police has released CCTV footage of two people it wants to identify after the blaze, which it is treating as arson and a hate crime.
