Man convicted of attempting terror attack at London’s Israeli embassy last year
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA man who last year tried to enter Israel’s London embassy armed with two knives and carrying a “martyrdom note” is convicted in a London court of preparing an act of terrorism.
Abdullah Albadri, 34, a failed asylum seeker from Kuwait, attempted to breach the embassy’s perimeter in April 2025 because he wanted to send a message about “the killing of children,” prosecutors said at his trial this month.
Albadri has denied charges of preparing an act of terrorism and possession of two bladed articles, telling police he had the knives because he was homeless, but a jury has now found him guilty.
