Prime Minister Keir Starmer warned Iran against encouraging antisemitism in Britain, saying UK authorities are investigating whether a foreign state was behind some of the recent attacks on the country’s Jewish community.

Starmer issued his warning at a meeting Tuesday with community leaders about the threat of antisemitism, just after counter-terrorism police said they were investigating an arson incident at a former synagogue in east London.
