Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs designated Argentina's navy and air force as terrorist organizations in response to Buenos Aires' earlier designation of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization. The Iranian move was based on a 2019 law allowing reciprocal measures against countries that support the US designation of the IRGC as a terrorist organization. Argentina had designated the IRGC in April, citing its support for Hezbollah, which Buenos Aires blames for the 1994 bombing of the AMIA Jewish community center that killed 85 people. The Argentine government rejected Iran's designation, calling it baseless and unacceptable.
