The United Kingdom, the United States, and several allies have formally accused Iran of orchestrating cross-border assassination plots targeting political dissidents and activists living abroad.

In a coordinated statement, the governments cited evidence of Iranian intelligence operations intended to silence opposition voices in Europe and North America.

Tehran has denied the allegations, while Western security agencies continue to monitor potential threats against exiled figures.
