29 Countries Condemn Iran, Accuse Revolutionary Guard of Behind 'Hostile Activities Abroad'

Twenty-nine countries, including the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Canada, and Australia, condemned on Monday what they described as "hostile activities" by Iran on their territories, accusing Tehran of involvement in attacks, sabotage, and cyberattacks through covert networks and proxies.

In a joint statement, the foreign ministers of the signatory countries said they condemn "in the strongest terms" Iran's use of violent attacks that included "planning lethal operations, arson, sabotage, cyberattacks, and other hybrid activities" against their countries and partners.

The statement noted the signatories' endorsement of the United Kingdom's conclusion regarding Iran's involvement in an incident at the Royal Air Force's RAF Fairford base on September 27, noting that London concluded the incident reflects "the continued willingness of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps" to carry out hostile activities outside Iranian borders through covert networks and proxies.

The statement added that these accusations come after a recent "campaign of attacks" in Europe targeting Jewish communities, Iranian journalists, and American interests, stating that the "Islamic Right Movement" claimed responsibility for them.

The signatory countries warned that any Iranian attempts to threaten, intimidate, or harass individuals on their soil, whether through proxies or other means, are "unacceptable," affirming they will continue working to detect, investigate, thwart, and prosecute those responsible for such activities.

The statement affirmed that the signatory countries are "united" in their commitment to protecting their sovereignty, enhancing international coordination, strengthening their capacity to counter threats, and ensuring accountability for those behind any hostile activities targeting their territories or interests.

Fairford Base Targeting Plot
The joint condemnation follows escalating Western accusations against Iran for standing behind a suspected plot to target the British RAF Fairford airbase, which the United States uses to host long-range strategic bombers, including B-1 and B-52 aircraft.

A US official revealed to the Associated Press that President Donald Trump's administration believes the plot aimed to "kill as many American soldiers as possible and destroy as many American planes as possible."

British police arrested seven people connected to the case, including a Briton of Iranian origin, while investigators found quantities of gasoline inside three trucks linked to suspects, without discovering explosives.

The United States had withdrawn its bombers from the base after detecting the threat, while British Prime Minister Andy Burnham stated that London has "strong indications" of Iranian involvement in the incident.

Tehran denies any involvement but considers bases used in attacking it as "legitimate targets."
