UK to designate Iran’s IRGC as a terrorist organization

The British government is moving to criminalize support for Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and other foreign state proxies, designating them as threats to national security. This follows a rise in anti-Semitic attacks in the UK, including incidents targeting Jewish sites. If approved, the new powers will make it a criminal offense to assist these groups, with severe penalties for those involved, marking a significant escalation in UK-Iran relations.
