Britain has proscribed Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organisation, Al-Monitor reported on July 13, 2026, citing Sky News. The designation makes it a criminal offence to belong to the group, attend its meetings, or carry its logo in public. The IRGC already faces British sanctions.
It has served as an elite military force loyal to the Islamic Republic's Supreme Leader since its establishment after the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Al-Monitor reported the information from London. Sarah Young handled the original reporting for Reuters, with writing by Muvija M and editing by William James.
