A new report from the UK Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee reveals a significant increase in Iranian efforts to intimidate, kidnap, or kill individuals on British soil, with at least 15 plots uncovered since 2022.

Kent sought to downplay the report’s findings contradicting Trump’s claim of Venezuelan government collusion with the gang, despite the National Intelligence Council’s conclusion that such collaboration was improbable. Subsequently, Gabbard fired two top intelligence officials following the report’s release and subsequent media coverage highlighting the discrepancies. This action prompted accusations of retaliation for producing analysis that contradicted the President’s political agenda.
