According to Shomrim Stamford Hill - a Jewish neighbourhood watch organisation- two Jewish schools have been targeted with red paint, with one incident taking place on Thursday, and the second taking place on Monday.

Shomrim Stamford Hill uploaded CCTV footage to X, formerly known as Twitter, of a masked suspect spraying paint onto the buildings.

The Met Police have since confirmed that they will be investigating the vandalism as a hate crime.

Met Police have revealed the first school attack was located on Lordship Road, with the attack taking place at around 07:00 on Thursday. The second school attack took place in Woodberry Down on Monday.

These incidents bear a similarity to other paint attacks from last week, which took place at BBC's London headquarters, as well as BBC's Hanover building in Liverpool city centre.

Palestine Action, a pro-Palestinian organisation, has claimed responsibility for the BBC attacks via X.

The group stated: "Palestine Action left a message overnight for the BBC: spreading the occupation's lies and manufacturing consent for Israel's war crimes means that you have Palestinian blood on your hands."

The organisation then made a further statement, in which they accused the BBC of being complicit in "manufacturing consent for the occupation's genocide of Palestinians".

As a result of the Hamas attack and the conflict in Gaza, Met Police have increased police patrols in areas such as Hackney and Tower Hamlets to "provide reassurance."

Det Ch Supt James Conway, who manages policing in Hackney and Tower Hamlets went on to say: "We are working closely with our partners in the Community Security Trust, the Shomrim, Hackney Council and other key local partners.

"We have a zero tolerance for hate crime."

The chief executive of the Shomrim group stated: "The brazen acts of vandalism have sent shockwaves through our community.

"The fear and anxiety are palpable, especially among the students and their families, who are forced to confront the harsh reality of hatred that has literally stained the walls of their educational sanctuaries."

As of yet, there has been no information regarding who may have been behind the school attacks, however, ave Rich, director of policy at the Community Security Trust (CST) urges "anyone with any information about this appalling example of anti-Jewish hatred to contact police."
