Ex-Soldiers Protect Jewish Schools and Temples
Introduction
The Community Security Trust hired ex-soldiers. These men protect Jewish schools and synagogues because there are many attacks.
Main Body
Before, volunteers protected these places. Now, ex-soldiers from the Army and Navy do the job. This is because people burned ambulances and attacked buildings. Some people say Iran caused these attacks. Police arrested a man named Essa Suleiman. He tried to kill people with a knife in Golders Green. The government says the danger of terrorism in the UK is now very high. Some politicians are angry. Zack Polanski from the Green Party says the police were too violent. The Prime Minister and the Police Chief disagree. They want stricter rules for protests.
Conclusion
The UK terror level is still 'severe'. Ex-soldiers continue to walk and watch Jewish sites in London and Manchester.
