British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced a new legislative proposal that would impose prison sentences of up to 14 years for anyone found backing or aiding designated foreign state proxies, including Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and an Iran-aligned group that has taken responsibility for attacks on Jewish properties in London. Iran’s foreign ministry condemned the plan as a hostile and unjustified act it said violates international law. The measure, set to be introduced to Parliament this week, would also cover elements tied to Russia’s GRU intelligence agency. The move follows a series of antisemitic assaults in London and a recent conviction in a stabbing case carried out at Iran’s direction, according to a British court. Iran subsequently summoned the British ambassador to protest what it called baseless accusations.
