The US Treasury Department has announced new sanctions on Iran, according to an N12 report citing the Treasury's official website. No specific individuals, entities, or sectors targeted by the new measures have been disclosed yet.
The move is the latest in a series of sanctions actions by the Trump administration against Iran. As The Zioneer has reported, the Treasury in recent weeks imposed sanctions on entities linked to the Iranian regime (June 5), on Chinese and Hong Kong firms for arming Iran's military (June 12), on Hezbollah fundraising networks (June 18), and canceled all prior authorizations for Iranian oil exports (July 8). The administration has described a strategy of multi-dimensional pressure combining economic, diplomatic, and military levers.
Details on the scope of the new sanctions are expected to emerge from the Treasury's official notice.
