London, Sep. 11 - Iran is examining ways to step up attacks against
British forces based in southern Iraq, an Arabic television channel
quoted a former officer in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps
(IRGC) as saying on Saturday.

The former Iranian officer, who was a colonel in the Revolutionary
Guards' elite Qods Force, revealed that two IRGC officers based at
Ramadan Garrison near the Iran-Iraq border had recently met with four
commanders of Ansar al-Islam and Jihad Organisation to "examine ways
of stepping up armed operations against British forces in southern
Iraq", the Dubai-based al-Arabiya TV said.

The Qods Force, the extra-territorial arm of the IRGC, is tasked with

is under the command of IRGC Brigadier General Qassem Soleimani,
spearheads the Iranian government's extensive clandestine operations
in Iraq.
