Britain on Tuesday summoned Iran's most senior diplomat in London over what the UK government said was ​Iran's role in directing proxy groups to carry ‌out attacks across Europe in recent months.

Charge d'Affaires Ali Nasimfar was summoned to the foreign ministry over the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ​Quds Force allegedly directing a group to carry ​out attacks across Europe between March and May, ⁠the British Foreign Ministry said in a statement on ​Tuesday.

It identified the proxy group as the Islamic Movement of ​the Companions of the Right. Calling the activity "completely unacceptable," the foreign ministry said, "Despite repeated warnings, Iran’s intelligence services have not ceased in ​their hostile activity. Instead, Iran has sought to intensify ​its malign behaviour."
