EU foreign ministers were anticipated to designate Iran's Revolutionary Guards as a terrorist organization following a deadly suppression of widespread protests. This move would place them on par with groups like Al-Qaeda and Islamic State, sending a strong message of condemnation to Iran.

• EU also adopted visa bans and asset freezes on 21 state entities and Iranian officials, including the interior minister and prosecutor general.
• France and Italy shifted their stance to support the listing, mirroring classifications by the United States, Canada, and Australia.
• Iranian authorities reported over 3,000 deaths during the protests, while rights groups estimate a much higher toll.
