We do not routinely comment on intelligence matters or specific threats.

The safety and security of our citizens is the Government’s top priority and we will continue to use all tools at our disposal to protect the UK and our interests from any Iran-linked threats.

The UK is committed to working with the international community to ensure Iran abides by international laws and norms and is held to account for its destabilising activity.
