British counter-terrorism police have announced the disruption of a plot targeting Manchester's Jewish community, with two men in their thirties arrested on Sunday afternoon at 2:45 p.m.1 The arrests came following a months-long investigation that police believe has neutralized the primary suspects and secured materials that may have been intended for use in an attack.1
The operation was conducted in the lead-up to Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, with the arrests taking place just hours before the observance began.1 Deputy Assistant Commissioner Vicki Evans stated: "This has been a protracted proactive investigation, which has resulted in us disrupting what we believe to be a plot to carry out an attack on the Jewish community in the Manchester area."1 Both men were arrested under Section 41 of the Terrorism Act, and police retained the authority to hold them in custody through Sunday.1 Searches were conducted at two locations: Epworth Street in Liverpool and Lancaster Road in Salford.1
The latest arrests follow a fatal attack on a Manchester synagogue approximately one year prior during Yom Kippur, which resulted in two deaths; the attacker was shot dead by police.1 The United Kingdom's terror threat level currently remains at the second-highest of four levels.1
