The United Kingdom will designate Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a threat to its national security with its members facing up to life imprisonment.
– Britain says a second Iran linked-group, the Islamic Movement of Companions of the Right, has claimed seven attacks linked to Jewish and Israeli communities and will also be designated.
– A new act – using proscription-like powers designed to tackle state-backed threats – gives the home secretary authority to designate organisations involved with foreign nations. The law makes it a criminal offence to express support for, assist, or receive material benefit from a designated organisation.
