Commuters and community leaders have expressed shock and dismay over the incident, with many calling for a swift and thorough investigation to identify the individuals or groups behind the hateful message. British authorities have assured the public that they are taking the matter seriously and are working to track down the perpetrators.
The incident has raised concerns about the rise of Islamophobia and hate speech in the UK, with many calling for increased awareness and education to combat such prejudice.
