Nov 01 2026

ARK News.. Iran’s Foreign Ministry has announced that it has designated the British Royal Navy and Royal Air Force as “terrorist organizations” and classified Britain’s intelligence service as a hostile entity.

In a statement, the ministry said the measures were taken under the principle of reciprocity and in accordance with Iranian law. It described them as a response to what it called Britain’s involvement in the war against Iran, as well as London’s decision to place the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) under the provisions of the law addressing threats to the security of the state.

The ministry added that the designation of the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force took effect on the date the statement was published. It warned that the British government would be responsible for the consequences of these measures.
