US imposes new sanctions against suppliers of weapons to Iran
The measures freeze U.S. assets and bar American dealings with targets accused of helping Tehran rebuild drone and missile production.
- On Tuesday, the Treasury Department sanctioned 14 targets, including individuals, entities, and aircraft based in Iran, Turkiye, and the United Arab Emirates, for their involvement in helping the Iranian regime obtain weapons.
- These sanctions support Economic Fury, President Trump's directive to counter Iran's weapons programs, as the United States continues seeking to deplete Iran's ballistic missile inventories amid the regime's reliance on Shahed-series UAVs.
- The Treasury Department identified eight individuals and four entities, including Mahan Air, which the United States accused of supporting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and Dubai-based Chabok FZCO.
- Shortly after the sanctions announcement, President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that he would extend the two-week ceasefire until Iranian leaders submit a unified proposal, following requests from Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir.
- Tehran refuses to commit to attending the Wednesday talks in Pakistan, as the United States naval blockade continues, prompting the closure of maritime trade routes and heightening diplomatic uncertainty.
