Tehran Rejects British Security Crackdown on IRGC

The British government enacted the ban on Monday, utilizing expanded legislative powers aimed at curbing foreign surveillance and sabotage operations. By prohibiting support for the IRGC and its affiliates, London seeks to dismantle networks it identifies as conduits for proxy warfare. Officials in the UK emphasize that these measures are essential to safeguarding national security against escalating threats.

Iran rejects these claims, asserting that it does not engage in proxy operations against the United States or Israel. The foreign ministry contends that the UK’s classification of an official military branch is legally baseless and risks further destabilizing diplomatic relations between the two nations.
