## Resource

The U.K. government has slapped a ban on a proxy group linked to Iran, the Islamic Movement of the Companions of the Right, accused of arson and vandalism at Jewish sites across Britain — including synagogues and ambulances — with ties to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard and its Qods Force. Britain is also targeting Russia’s GRU Volunteer Corps, calling both “thugs for hire” operating on foreign orders. New legislation now allows life sentences for sabotage tied to these banned groups, signaling a major escalation in Britain’s fight against foreign-backed attacks on Jewish communities and critical media.
