Watch: Armed man ‘tries to break into London’s Israeli embassy by climbing over fence’

CCTV footage shown in court captures the moment a man tried to jump over a fence outside the Israeli embassy in London, allegedly attempting to force entry while carrying two knives.

Armed officers quickly detained him following the incident on 28 April 2025, with footage also showing his arrest.

Kuwait-born Abdullah Albadri, 34, is on trial at the Old Bailey, accused of planning an attack on the embassy in Kensington, west London, to “exact revenge” for the killing of children in Gaza.

He has been charged with preparing terrorist acts and possession of two knives. Albadri denies the terror charges.

His trial at the Old Bailey resumes on Monday (20 April).
