The UK government announced today that it is banning the activities of the Islamic Movement of the Right (IMCR), a group supported by Iran as its proxy, and the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran.
A series of arson attacks and vandalism against Jewish community facilities in Britain is the work of the IMCR, the British government has said.
In a statement, Security Minister Angela Eagle said that IMCR had claimed responsibility for seven attacks in the UK.
"Behind the IMCR are members of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran, who almost certainly directed the IMCR attacks across Europe," Eagle said.
The Quds Force is a special unit of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, specializing in unconventional warfare and military intelligence operations.
