London, October 14 (EFE).- Britain this Monday announced a new round of sanctions against Iran, covering members and organizations of the country’s military, following its missile attack on Israel on October 1.
In a statement issued today by the British Foreign Office, London included a list of members of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army, Iranian Air Force and the IRGC Intelligence organization who were subject to sanctions, among others.
But it also includes the FPSDB, the Farzanegan Propulsion Systems design office, which designs and produces parts that can be used in cruise missiles, and the Iranian Space Agency, which develops technologies that can be applied in the development of ballistic missiles, and which would be subject to an asset freeze by the Government English.
“After the ballistic missile attack on Israel, we held Iran accountable and revealed who facilitated this action,” said the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, David Lammy, in the note.
“Together with allies and partners, we will continue to take the necessary steps to challenge Iran’s unacceptable threats and press for de-escalation across the region,” added the Labor politician. EFE
