A group of three Israelis, including a woman raised in London, were attacked in Leicester Square, central London, by a mob of around 20 men who assaulted them after overhearing them speak Hebrew. The victims reported that the police failed to respond despite calling 10 times. The attackers chanted 'free Palestine' and 'f*ck the Jews' during the assault. The Mayor of London has condemned the incident, and the Met Police are investigating it as a hate crime. The victims have demanded a police apology for the delayed response.

Antisemitism will not be tolerated in our city. I’m appalled by reports of an antisemitic incident in Leicester Square over the weekend. The Met Police are now investigating it as a hate crime. I urge you to report any information you have about this incident:
