The U.S. Treasury Announces New Sanctions Related to Iran

The U.S. Treasury Department said on Friday that it has imposed new sanctions related to Iran, clarifying that the package includes a number of companies and seven individuals whom Washington accuses of contributing to activities linked to Iranian programs or networks that are under sanctions.

This move comes as part of the pressure policy adopted by the United States against entities that it says support Iran's military or economic capabilities in ways that violate U.S. and international regulations.
