The London police are looking into a social media post made by Sarah Helm. She is married to a top national security adviser who works for the UK government.
Helm shared a post from a group called Palestine Action. This group is known for holding protests against companies they claim are linked to Israel.
Because of her post, some pro-Israel groups have asked the police to take action. They believe the post went too far. However, others have defended her. Zack Polanski, a politician, praised her for what he called her "bravery" in speaking her mind.
There is now a lot of pressure on the government because of this. Some reports say that because of all the drama, her husband is even thinking about quitting his job as an adviser.
The Metropolitan Police have confirmed they are looking at the situation. They are checking to see if the post broke any laws. For now, the police are just gathering information while the debate over the post continues.
