PoliticsUK to list Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as terrorist organisation

The UK government says it will designate Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organisation. The Home Office will prohibit support for the group, which ministers describe as a central branch of Iran’s military. The decision marks a major escalation in diplomatic tensions with Tehran. British political divisions over the issue had continued for years. The measure amounts to proscription, although the Home Office says it is not legally identical to a formal ban.
