Faria Zarati of "Iran International" was stabbed in the British capital by a group of people and taken to hospital. The motive for his attack is still unknown, but the channel's employees are threatened by the regime.

London police opened an investigation into the attack, which happened a few months after an attempt by Tehran to assassinate two other journalists at the channel. It was also reported that Britain's internal intelligence service, MI5, had been briefed on the incident. More on the same topic: Iran UK.
