Islamophobia is on the rise in London amid the war in Gaza. Since mid-February, three mosques in the city have been attacked, and Muslims welcome the month of Ramadan with fear and anxiety.

Two Orthodox Jewish rabbis were arrested for "inciting anti-Semitism" at the end of a 15,000-strong pro-Palestinian march in London. The organizers of the march criticized the police actions.

More than 700 people have been evacuated from the mosque and three surrounding areas due to threats of a terrorist attack from one of Britain's largest mosques in east London. The threat has not been confirmed, but a possible hate crime is under investigation. As a result of quick measures, it was reported that the evening call to prayer was not performed for the first time in the 37-year history of the mosque.
