30+ former FCO/DFID officials who worked in Afghanistan have called for more to be done even now to help Afghan aid workers, by expanding ARAP, simplify procedures + increasing staff resourcing. As a former Afghanistan APPG Chair I urge @10DowningStreet & @DominicRaab to support.

In Feb last year we launched our 'Shia Islamism in Focus' programme. Today we're publishing our latest analysis by @KasraAarabi on #IRGC internal ideological training manuals. We know the IRGC is a source of instability in the region, but what is its overarching objective?
Our new report by @KasraAarabi analyses training materials from the IRGC, showing how the Iranian regime weaponises its Shia Islamist ideology to motivate the group, with all recruits required to undergo indoctrination.
