BANGKOK, April 24 — Thailand’s Supreme Court on Friday agreed to hear a petition accusing 44 current and former opposition lawmakers of ethics violations over their 2021 move to amend a law protecting the monarchy from criticism, according to Thai media reports.
The London Fire Brigade said it deployed six fire engines and around 40 firefighters after receiving emergency calls at 0140 GMT.
“Multiple cylinders on the vehicles exploded and caused windows to break in an adjacent block of flats. No injuries are reported,” it said.
The fire was brought under control by 0306 GMT, the brigade added.
The incident comes amid a rise in attacks against Jewish individuals and institutions since the Hamas attacks that triggered the Gaza war.
Britain has recorded a significant increase in antisemitic incidents over the past year, with one of the most serious cases being a deadly attack in Manchester during Yom Kippur. — Reuters
