'The British Telegraph published an investigation today that indicates that Iran is conducting a smuggling campaign of agents into Britain.

According to the investigation - cited in 'Kan News' - Unit 700, the smuggling arm of the Quds Force in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, is leading the process of introducing agents into Britain, disguised as immigrants on small boats and flights from Eastern Europe.

An Iranian source told the British newspaper that this was a warning for "a country that did not properly consider distancing itself from the war.".

He added: "Britain has vainly convinced itself that its geographical location will protect it. Don't forget that you have bases within range of our missiles. Tell them to keep their distance if they want to be safe, and not live like the administration officials in the United States who fear for their lives.".

According to him, Iran now has agents in London: "They are revolutionary people who care about the world and the lives of children and are waiting for us to tell them what to do. We haven't done it yet, but we could easily make London unsafe if we wanted to.".

The source added that the agent smuggling routes are more useful to Iran than missiles: "We don't need a missile to attack London, it would be easier than that.".

Another Iranian source threatened to attack 10 Downing Street - the office of the British Prime Minister.

""If we want, we have people there who can attack the prime minister's house. If we use these people, we will make all their cities unsafe. It's their choice.".

According to him, the agents enter and exit government offices without being checked.

The British newspaper interviewed two people who smuggle agents into Europe for Iran. They said they were aware of their work's connection to the Iranian regime. One of them said that through the smuggling route he uses, he could take anyone he wanted into Europe.

""It works like in any other country. You're in a park and then someone working for Iran approaches you. In less than a week you're on a boat on your way to London," he explained.
