Two Iranian men have been charged in connection with an alleged terrorism plot targeting Manchester's Jewish community, according to the Guardian.
Rahman Salehi, 35, and Salam Ahmadyan, 36, have been charged with preparing to commit an act of terrorism or assisting another person to commit an act of terrorism, the report said.
The two men were arrested on 20 September, the eve of Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, according to the Guardian's reporting.
Further details about the specific nature of the alleged plot, including any intended target or timing, were not disclosed in the initial report. The case is expected to proceed through the UK judicial system, where further details may emerge as proceedings continue.
