UK to beef up security at vulnerable mosques following anti-immigration riots, arrests

The UK government on Sunday said it would offer additional emergency security teams to vulnerable mosques, and warned that violent disorder would “not be tolerated” after police made dozens of arrests at far-right rallies following clashes between protesters and officers.

Unrest linked to disinformation about a mass stabbing that killed three young girls last week spread to multiple towns and cities on Saturday as anti-immigration demonstrators faced off against counter-protesters.
