From BBC News.

A man has appeared in court charged with attempted murder after two Jewish men were stabbed in Golders Green, north London on Wednesday.

Essa Suleiman, 45, is accused of attacking Shloime Rand, 34, and Moshe Shine, 76.

Both men suffered serious injuries and were treated in hospital, with the Metropolitan Police declaring it a terrorist incident.

Suleiman is also accused of attempting to murder Ishmail Hussein in a knife attack at Hussein’s flat in Southwark, south London, earlier the same day. Hussein was somebody that Suleiman had known for approximately 20 years. He also faces a charge of possessing a knife in a public place in Golders Green.

In the aftermath, the UK’s terror threat level was raised to severe following the stabbing. The UK government said the threat level had been rising "for some time", adding that the increased level was "not solely" as a result of the incident earlier this week.
