Eight people were taken to hospital after the "terrorist attack" near Finsbury Park Mosque, police said.

Wonder why the BBC used inverted commas for this attack

We try to avoid the use of the term "terrorist" without attribution.

Which is what the quote above does. The question would be whether this is how it has been handled in other recent incidents.
