Police in hazmat suits have blocked off Kensington Gardens in London.
Drones with dangerous substances are said to have struck near the Israeli embassy.
The new terrorist group “Right-wing men” has claimed responsibility for the attack.
A major police operation is underway in Kensington Gardens in London.
According to Sky News, a bus with police from the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Unit has also arrived.
The major operation began after a video, which is said to show drones releasing dangerous objects near the Israeli embassy, was published online.
“While we can confirm that the embassy was not attacked, we are urgently investigating to establish the authenticity of the video and to identify any links between it and the objects that crashed in Kensington Gardens,” the Metropolitan Police wrote in a statement.
The Islamist terror group Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya, or the Right Hand Men, has claimed responsibility for the attack.
The Islamist group is said to have close ties to Iran and has carried out a series of attacks across Europe in recent months.
It is said to be behind arson attacks on synagogues and the burning of four ambulances belonging to a Jewish charity.
The London police have issued a warning to anyone who has been “persuaded or paid” to act on behalf of foreign organisations.
