In a disturbing incident in Haringey, London, two teenage girls, aged 13 and 14, have been arrested following an assault on a 20-year-old Orthodox Jewish woman. The attack, which took place around 4:30 pm on Thursday, has raised concerns about it being a targeted hate crime.
The young woman, who was assaulted and had her handbag stolen, was reportedly left bruised but did not require hospital treatment. Footage of the incident, which has since been circulated online, was initially shared by the neighbourhood watch group Shomrim. The video shows the victim being followed, attacked, and robbed by the two teenagers.
