A Telegraph investigation alleges that Iran is infiltrating secret agents into the United Kingdom posing as migrants, with the agents awaiting orders from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The report also cites an Iranian source who threatened to strike Downing Street, saying 'We don't need missiles to attack London.'
A new investigation by The Telegraph reports that Iran has been infiltrating secret agents into the United Kingdom by disguising them as migrants. According to the report, the agents are embedded in the UK awaiting orders from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). An Iranian source quoted in the investigation threatened to strike Downing Street, stating: 'We don't need missiles to attack London.' The report, sourced to a single outlet, has not been independently verified. The UK has previously designated the IRGC as a national security threat, making support for the organization a criminal offense (as The Zioneer reported on July 14). The source that circulated the report, newssil, is not an official government source. The investigation adds to a pattern of IRGC activities abroad, but the specific claims remain unconfirmed by official UK or Israeli sources.
