A boy aged 17 has been charged with arson after an attack on a synagogue in north-west London.
The teenager, a British national from Brent, who has not been named for legal reasons because of his age, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.
He is accused of arson not endangering life.
Footage was posted online of a figure in dark clothing setting light to a bottle of liquid and throwing it through a window at Kenton United Synagogue in Harrow late on Saturday.
Jewish charity the Community Security Trust said minor smoke damage to an internal room was caused but there were no injuries or significant structural damage.
A 19-year-old man who was also arrested after the attack has been released on bail pending further inquiries, the Metropolitan Police said.
The attack was the latest in a string of separate incidents that have targeted Jewish sites in London.
Four Jewish community ambulances were destroyed in an arson attack in Golders Green on March 23, and there have been further attacks at a synagogue in Finchley and a former Jewish charity building in Hendon.
Another incident saw a drone flown near the Israeli embassy in London.
A group that calls itself Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamia, the Islamic Movement of the Companions of the Right, that is suspected to be Iran-backed, has claimed responsibility for most of the incidents, along with other attacks in Europe, since March 9.
