Poilievre asks public safety minister to declare Iran-backed group linked to synagogue attack a terrorist entity

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is urging Canada's government to officially label an Iran-backed militia, Kata'ib Hezbollah, as a terrorist group. He cites accusations that the group, and a recently arrested commander, were involved in attacks, including potentially in Toronto. Poilievre argues the government is delaying unnecessarily and failing to act strongly enough. In contrast, another article reports on a separate, deadly bombing in Moscow, described as a 'brutal terrorist act,' with an investigation underway. The focus in the Poilievre story is on security and government action, while the Moscow report highlights the immediate aftermath of a violent event. Readers should watch for the government's response to Poilievre's demand and further details on the alleged activities of Kata'ib Hezbollah.
