A Jewish man in his 20s is being treated in hospital after an assault in Golders Green, northwest London, in the early hours of Monday. Reports say the victim stepped outside to use his phone before being attacked by a group of men outside a property on Grove in the area. Police were called around 2am following reports of the assault.

Multiple outlets report that officers are investigating the incident as an antisemitic hate crime. One report describes the attackers as a group of five men, while another refers more generally to “a number of men.” Details reported across sources include injuries to the victim’s face and body, requiring hospital treatment.

The Metropolitan Police have begun inquiries into the circumstances of the attack, including whether hate motivation was involved. No information is provided in the available reports about arrests, the suspects’ identities, or the precise number of attackers beyond the descriptions cited.
