Description

Two men, Walid Saadaoui and Amar Hussein, were convicted for planning a deadly gun attack on the Jewish community in Greater Manchester. Their plot, inspired by ISIS, involved smuggling weapons and targeting a large Jewish gathering, with plans to take out any police in their way. The attack was thwarted when their accomplice, Farouk, was revealed to be an undercover operative. Saadaoui was arrested with two assault rifles, a semi-automatic pistol, and nearly two hundred rounds of ammunition. The case highlights the real threat of terrorism and the crucial role of police in preventing such attacks.
