Two Iranian men have been charged with terror offences over an alleged plot to target the UK’s Jewish community in the city of Manchester ahead of Yom Kippur, counter-terrorism police have said. Rahman Salehi, 35, of Salford and Salam Ahmadyan, 36, from Liverpool, who are thought to have arrived in the UK by small boat, are accused of preparing to commit an act of terrorism or assisting another to commit an act of terrorism on or before 20 September. The pair who were arrested in the city are accused of communicating with others, to acquire components to assemble a homemade explosive device. It’s alleged they had obtained instructions on manufacturing bombs, had been using the internet to identify potential targets and conducted reconnaissance of potential locations for attack. The British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said the news two Iranian men have been charged over an alleged plot would be "deeply distressing" to the Jewish community. She said: "The fact both suspects arrived by small boat several years ago is a reminder of the importance of our relentless work to tackle illegal migration into this country. While numbers are down, I know there is more we must do” Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Lucy Manning.
