The Government does not routinely comment on the detail of operational matters or specific threats. But the UK will always stand up to threats from foreign states. We continually assess potential threats to the UK and its residents and will continue to take the protection of individuals’ rights, freedoms and safety in the UK very seriously. Any attempt by a foreign power to intimidate, harass or harm individuals or communities in the UK will not be tolerated.

We are also taking broader action on antisemitism - rooting out extremism, tackling it in schools and universities, and in the NHS.

We are committed to tackling those who spread views that sow divisions between or within communities and oppose the values we share as a society.
