The United States and 29 allied nations, including the UK, France, Germany, Canada, and Australia, have issued a joint statement condemning Iran's alleged "subversive activities" abroad. The condemnation follows reports of "terrorist attacks, arson, cyber operations, and the persecution of individuals," particularly targeting European Jewish communities and diplomats.
The joint statement, released on Monday, October 12, by the foreign ministries of the signatory states, expressed concern over Iran's actions outside its borders, often carried out through affiliated organizations and proxies. A specific incident highlighted is the September 27 event at the UK's RAF Fairford airbase, which the British government attributes to Iran and British intelligence links to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
According to the report, Iranian entities are suspected of using overseas networks for operations against foreign states and individuals. The statement also references attacks on Jewish communities, Iranian journalists critical of the regime, and targets linked to American interests. The group "Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya" (HAYI) has claimed responsibility for some of these attacks, though the direct involvement of Iranian authorities in certain incidents requires further investigation.
Foreign ministers emphasized that intimidation and harm to individuals within their territories are unacceptable, whether conducted directly or through intermediaries. The participating countries pledged to enhance security cooperation, protect national sovereignty, and hold perpetrators accountable.
Pinchas Goldschmidt, President of the Conference of European Rabbis, stated that threats against Jewish communities should not be treated solely as a diplomatic issue, urging governments to actively counter extremist networks and funding. He stressed that political statements alone are insufficient and that the true measure of success will be the prevention of future attacks by law enforcement.
The developments are of particular concern to Israel, given that Jewish communities and related institutions are among the alleged targets of these foreign operations.
