(BBC) Two men have denied plotting an Islamic State group-inspired gun attack on the Jewish community in the UK.
Walid Saadaoui, 37, and Amar Hussein, 51, pleaded not guilty on Friday to preparing acts of terrorism between 13 December [2023] and 9 May [2024].
The charge against them alleges that they “arranged for the purchase and delivery of firearms, conducted reconnaissance and made plans of attack.”
It is alleged that the main targets of the proposed attack were members of the Jewish community in the north-west of England, members of law enforcement and military.
