29 countries condemn Iran’s alleged overseas attacks, back UK attribution of RAF Fairford incident and vow coordinated action against those responsible

Foreign ministers from 29 countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada and Australia, issued a joint statement on Monday condemning what they described as Iran’s use of violent attacks against their countries and partners.

The ministers cited lethal plots, arson, sabotage, cyberattacks and other hostile activities. They recognized the UK’s attribution of Iran’s involvement in the September 27 incident at RAF Fairford and said Britain had assessed that the episode showed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ continued willingness to operate abroad through covert networks and proxy actors.

The statement also pointed to a recent series of attacks across Europe targeting Jewish communities, Iranian journalists and U.S. interests. It said the attacks had been claimed by Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya.

The countries said any attempt by Iran, through proxies or other means, to threaten, silence, intimidate, harass, harm or coerce people on their territory was unacceptable. They pledged to strengthen cooperation to identify, investigate and disrupt hostile activity and prosecute those responsible, while protecting their communities and sovereignty.
