On 29 Jan 2026, the EU designated which Iranian force as a terrorist organization?

1. Basij
2. Quds Force
3. IRGC
4. Revolutionary Army

The European Union designated Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization on January 29, 2026. This unprecedented move froze IRGC assets within EU jurisdictions and prohibited European entities from providing economic resources to the organization. The designation followed intensified repression of domestic protests, IRGC’s regional destabilizing activities, and reported arms transfers to Russia.
