| A woman found stabbed after a gas explosion at her home has been named as a charity worker who supported refugees. | |
| Annabel Rook, 46, was found fatally injured at a house in Dumont Road, Stoke Newington, north London, just before 05:00 BST. | |
| She worked for a charity she co-founded called Mama Suze CIC, which supports refugee and migrant women, some who have fled domestic violence, with art and drama activities. | |
| A 44-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder was taken to hospital with slash wounds. His condition is not life-threatening, the Met Police said. | |
| Police believe Ms Rook's death was "a domestic-related incident". | |
| Two children aged seven and nine were also taken to hospital as a precaution but are not thought to have been inside the home when the explosion happened. | |
| Neighbour Caroline Lacey told the BBC the house was home to a family. | |
| "It's very, very sad... they're a young couple, they've got young children, so it's a shock... it's tragic." | |
| One local mother said: "It's a very sad time for everybody, and right on your doorstep as well, it's scary." |
