The British Embassy in Tehran has been gathering intelligence on Iran for the United States and Israel, a senior Iranian lawmaker says. Deputy Head of the Parliament National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Esmail Kowsari told Fars news agency that “the US and the Zionist regime have been receiving intelligence [on Iran] through the British Embassy [in Tehran].” He added that the British Embassy's interference in Iran's domestic affairs was not confined to security but included political and cultural issues as well.
