UK proscribes Iran’s IRGC as terror group
The UK government has proscribed Iran’s Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation over “threats to life and intimidation on UK soil”.
The move comes after years of debate over the IRGC’s role and its close links to international terrorism as well as human rights abuses in Iran.
Sir Keir Starmer has authorised the decision to officially proscribe the IRGC after it was linked to recent terrorist incidents in the UK.
