A 17-year-old boy has pleaded guilty at Westminster magistrates court to arson not endangering life after an attack on Kenton united synagogue in north-west London on Saturday night.
The teenager, a British national from Brent, north-west London, has not been named because of his age.
Footage was posted online appearing to show a figure in dark clothing setting light to a bottle of liquid and throwing it through a window at the 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.
