LONDON — Counter terrorism police launched an investigation Monday after four ambulances belonging to a Jewish community ambulance service were set on fire in north London.

The Metropolitan Police were called to Golders Green, where there is a large Jewish community, early Monday after four volunteer Hatzola ambulances were set alight in the car park of a synagogue.

In a statement the Met said the arson attack is being treated as an “antisemitic hate crime.”
