According to the BBC’s reporting, one video described an “apocalyptic war on Jews” while a second contained Holocaust denial.

The footage – which also includes a denial of the Holocaust – adds to growing concerns from some parliamentarians that the Iranian regime’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is…

Iași, in eastern Romania, is set to host a series of events dedicated to the 165th anniversary of the Union of the Romanian Principalities, celebrated on January 24.
