London police boost patrols near synagogues after deadly Manchester attack

LONDON (Reuters) -Police said on Thursday it had deployed additional officers around synagogues and Jewish community sites in London on Thursday, following a deadly attack at a synagogue in Manchester earlier in the day.

London’s Metropolitan Police said there was no indication of an increased threat to the capital but had taken precautionary measures.

“While there is nothing to suggest an increased threat to London, we have deployed additional resources to the areas around synagogues, other Jewish community venues and in those boroughs with significant Jewish populations,” it said in a post on X.
