It comes as counter-terrorism police are leading the investigation into an arson attack on four Jewish community ambulances.

CCTV shows three people in hoods pouring accelerant on the vehicles, which belong to Jewish community ambulance service, Hatzola, before setting them on fire and running away.

The incident in Golders Green, north-west London, is being treated as an antisemitic hate crime by the Metropolitan Police but not as terrorism at this stage, the force said.

In the video, a group of men can be seen shouting “Al Jazeera off our streets”, “go home,” and “terrorist”.

One man tells the reporter, “no one wants Al Jazeera here”. Another adds “go back to Qatar”.

The reporter replies: “You don’t decide when I stay or when I leave”.

Security officials are seen getting in between the reporting crew and the group of men, before the reporter leaves the scene.

A second Al Jazeera representative remains with the group surrounding him and shouting in his ear.

Speaking near the scene on Monday, detective chief superintendent Luke Williams, who leads policing for the area, said investigators are aware of a group apparently claiming responsibility for the attack online, but have not yet verified whether this is true.

A video has allegedly been posted on Telegram by an Islamist group called Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia, showing a map of the location where the ambulances were kept and footage of them on fire.

Gas canisters kept in the ambulances exploded after they were set alight at the site in Highfield Road, Golders Green, north-west London, around 1.45am on Monday, but no injuries have been reported.

Nearby homes were evacuated as a precaution and road closures in the area remain in place.

Residents described being woken in the early hours by the noise, with the force of the explosions blowing out windows, including those of the nearby synagogue.

Jewish leaders met the Prime Minister in Downing Street on Monday afternoon, with Michael Wegier, chief executive of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, saying Jews in the UK feel less safe now than a few years ago.
