British police said on Monday they had arrested a 37-year old man in relation to a series of attacks on Jewish-linked premises in north west London.

Over the last month, counter terrorism officers have arrested a total of 26 people as part of investigations into arson and other attacks on Jewish-linked premises.

“He was arrested on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts and has been taken to a London police station for questioning,” the police said in a statement.
