The United Kingdom has announced sanctions against Iranian military figures and organisations following its 1 October attack on Israel.

The list includes Abdolrahim Mousavi, the commander of the Iranian army and a member of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, and Hamid Vahedi, commander of Iran’s air force.
Individuals sanctioned will be subject to a travel ban and asset freeze, the UK Foreign Office said.

The Iranian Space Agency, which develops technologies that have applications in ballistic missile development, will also be subject to an asset freeze.

Iran launched more than 180 ballistic missiles towards Israel on 1 October.
The Israeli military said most of the missiles were intercepted.

The only person reported to have been killed was a Palestinian man in the occupied West Bank.
