Complaints of Islamophobic incidents have increased by 31% in London over the past year, according to RFI on Thursday, 20 September 2026.
This rise is part of a national trend of increasing Islamophobic acts since 2023, coinciding with the outbreak of the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
In the United Kingdom, a mosque is attacked on average every five days, alarming the Muslim community about their future in the country.
