  "account": "Two Iranian nationals appeared in a London court on October 3, charged with plotting acts of terrorism targeting the Jewish community in northern England. Rahman Salehi, 34, and Salam Ahmadyan, 36, were arrested on September 20 at the start of Yom Kippur while allegedly carrying out hostile surveillance on potential Jewish targets in Manchester. The pair are accused of preparing acts of terrorism through the use of a homemade explosive device, according to prosecutors. The men were in contact with a third party believed to be based in Iran and provide instructions on assembling a homemade device, likely made from chlorine and brake fluid. Both defendants remain in custody, with their next hearing set for October 23 at London's Old Bailey court.",
