Iran guards reject US terror list

[dipsydoodle]

Officials from Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) have denounced reported US plans to designate the force as a foreign terrorist unit as "worthless".

But an unnamed Iranian foreign ministry official said it was too early to comment officially because Tehran had not been told about the possible move.

The EU said it had no plans to add the IRGC to its list of terror groups.

Repeat " The EU said it had no plans to add the IRGC to its list of terror groups"
