Canada puts Qods Force on terrorist list

Canada says it has added the Qods Force, the international arm of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps, to the list.

Canada has accused the Qods Force of “exporting the Iranian Revolution through activities such as facilitating terrorist operations.”

Canadian Public Safety Minister Vic Toews went on to allege that the Qods force provides “arms, funding and paramilitary training to extremist groups, including the Taliban, Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command.”

The IRGC has confirmed that its Qods forces are present in Syria and Lebanon but only in the capacity of aides and advisers.
