Online video claims group used drones carrying “dangerous substances”.

Police in the United Kingdom are investigating a security incident near the 'Israeli' Embassy in London after officers discovered discarded items in the surrounding area and a video surfaced online claiming a drone-related action.

Authorities said there is no evidence the embassy was attacked and confirmed there is no indication of increased risk to the public at this stage.

In a statement, Counter Terrorism Policing London said it was aware of an online video shared overnight in which a group claimed responsibility for targeting the embassy using drones carrying hazardous materials.

Police said officers were deployed after reports of suspicious activity and that inquiries are ongoing to determine the credibility of the claims.
