The United States has announced new sanctions on individuals and entities associated with Iran's drone program following last weekend's attack on Israel. The sanctions target executives of an engine manufacturer supplying Iran's Shahad-131 drones, companies servicing the engines, and individuals providing drones to Iranian proxy forces in the Middle East.
In addition to the drone-related sanctions, the Treasury Department has also imposed sanctions on five companies linked to Iran's steel industry and three subsidiaries of an Iranian automaker. These measures, coordinated with European allies, aim to disrupt Iran's missile and drone program and isolate the country globally.
