United Kingdom imposed sanctions on the Islamic Movement of Companions of the Right (IMCR) on Monday for its role in attacks on Jewish and Israeli-linked locations in Britain, including an antisemitic arson attack on ambulances in March. Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper stated the group, which claimed responsibility for seven UK incidents, was "almost certainly directed" by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Qods Force.
"The UK has sanctioned the Islamic Movement of Companions of the Right (IMCR) as there are reasonable ground to suspect IMCR involvement in hostile activity by the Government of Iran, including activity undermining the security of the UK and other countries and attacks against persons and assets in the United Kingdom or another country," the statement showed.
Earlier in the day, reports noted that the UK was preparing to proscribe the IRGC as a terrorist organization.
