UK faces rising and unpredictable threat from Iran, report warns

The report warns that the UK faces a rising and unpredictable threat from Iran. The intelligence committee's findings suggest that Iran's activities, including its support for proxy groups and cyberattacks, pose a significant risk to the UK's security and interests. The report highlights Iran's involvement in regional conflicts, its ballistic missile program, and its support for groups like Hezbollah, which the committee says could be used to target the UK or its allies. The report also notes that Iran's cyber capabilities have become more sophisticated, and that the country has demonstrated a willingness to conduct disruptive and destructive attacks. The committee calls for the UK government to take a more robust approach to addressing the threat from Iran, including through strengthening intelligence-sharing, improving cyber defenses, and working with allies to counter Iran's destabilizing activities in the region.
