US Treasury Announces Secondary Sanctions Cutting Off Iranian Airlines from Global System

The United States Treasury Department has announced that it will impose secondary sanctions on Iranian airlines as part of a broader effort to increase economic pressure on the regime ruling Iran. This move is a key component of the Trump administration’s 'Operation Economic Outcast,' which is designed to sever the access of Iranian aviation companies to global financial and operational systems. The announcement comes amidst ongoing tensions between Washington and Tehran across various security and economic fronts. US officials state that the campaign is intended to restrict the logistical and economic capabilities of the regime.
