A migrant from Kuwait who crossed into Britain illegally on a small boat is on trial for allegedly attempting a terror attack at the Israeli Embassy in London, trying to jump its fence armed with two knives.
| PULSE POINTS |
 WHAT HAPPENED: Abdullah Albadri, a 34-year-old Kuwaiti migrant, allegedly attempted to break into the Israeli Embassy in London while carrying two knives in April 2025. Prosecutors say Albadri intended to carry out a terror attack in relation to the Israel-Gaza conflict, citing a suspected martyrdom note and his own statements to police. DETAIL: Albadri was stopped by armed police just before gaining entry, with officers later finding a handwritten “martyrdom note” among his belongings. The court heard he wanted to “send a message,” referencing Gaza. Prosecutors argue the note, weapons, and phone evidence show he intended to carry out a suicide attack. Albadri denies preparing a terrorist act and claims the knives were for personal use because he was homeless. KEY QUOTE: “I will not go back on my decision to go in the cause of Allah… to stand up to the enemies in order to support the religion of Allah Almighty.” – Handwritten note allegedly sent by Albadri to his mother. SECONDARY QUOTE: “The existence and contents of his suspected martyrdom note, along with his possession of two knives, and material downloaded from his mobile phone, demonstrate his intention to use violence against people inside the Israeli embassy and sacrifice his own life in the process, to die, in his words, ‘for the glory of God’.” – Prosecutor Catherine Pattison. IMPACT: The court was told Albadri first arrived in the United Kingdom by small boat in 2021, left, and returned on another small boat in 2025. He had an asylum claim rejected shortly before the embassy incident. Boat migrants in Britain, who are often put up in hotels to live, have been behind a number of crimes in recent years, with one report claiming that hundreds have been charged with serious crimes like assault and rape. |
