Canada lists Iran’s IGRC as a terrorist group
Canada has designated Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization. This decision will bar thousands of senior Iranian officials, including top IRGC members, from entering Canada. The move has been condemned by Iran’s foreign ministry. The IRGC, a powerful military and economic force in Iran with close ties to the Supreme Leader, will now face restrictions on its operations in Canada. Current and former Iranian officials in Canada may be investigated and potentially removed. bd-pratidin
