The UK Government takes the issue of disinformation very seriously and is working with partners to combat false and misleading narratives. We have long been clear about our concerns over Iran's continued destabilising activity. This includes information operations against our allies in the Middle East, Europe and North America. As the Foreign Secretary has made clear, the UK is committed to working with the international community to ensure Iran abides by international laws and norms and is held to account for its destabilising activity.
