The Iranian Embassy in London has affirmed its continued operation and provision of full consular services, addressing recent disinformation campaigns aimed at undermining its functionality. The embassy released a statement reassuring Iranian citizens and applicants that, despite the spread of “false news” and disruptive activities, all services are operating normally throughout the week.
This announcement follows months of alleged attempts by anti-government groups to disseminate misinformation on social media. These efforts reportedly intensified following protests that occurred outside the embassy building. Authorities state these actions are designed to disrupt the embassy’s operations and sow distrust among those seeking consular assistance.
This is not an isolated incident; the embassy has previously experienced attempts to destabilize its activities through the circulation of rumors and unsubstantiated claims.London police confirmed the arrest of 14 individuals gathered in front of the embassy, charging them with public disorder offenses, according to the Iranian News Agency (IRNA).
The embassy’s statement underscores its commitment to serving Iranian citizens and maintaining consistent consular support despite external pressures and attempts at disruption. Individuals requiring consular services are encouraged to rely on official embassy channels for accurate information.
