The United Kingdom has imposed sanctions on the Foxtrot criminal network, a Swedish-based group supported by Iran's regime, for its involvement in terrorist operations across Europe. The UK's action follows similar measures by the United States, targeting the network and its leader, Rawa Majid, due to their role in attacks against Jewish and Israeli targets. Foreign Secretary David Lammy stated that the UK will not tolerate these threats, emphasizing the country's stance against Iran's hostile activities. The sanctions include an asset freeze on the Foxtrot Network and both an asset freeze and a travel ban on Rawa Majid, along with a director disqualification. These measures are part of the UK's broader response to Iran's hostile activities in Europe, which have included more than 20 plots since the start of 2022 aimed at kidnapping or killing individuals considered threats by Tehran. Majid is also subject to an Interpol red notice, indicating a global request for his arrest. The UK has now sanctioned over 450 Iranian individuals and entities in response to the regime's actions.
