US Sanctions All Remaining Iranian Airlines in Sweeping Aviation Crackdown

The United States has sanctioned all 27 remaining active Iranian airlines as part of a broader campaign to isolate Tehran’s aviation sector. The Treasury Department also targeted foreign companies and an individual accused of helping Iran obtain aircraft, parts and sensitive technology. Officials say the networks support weapons and personnel transfers, while companies dealing with sanctioned carriers risk losing access to global finance. The measures expand Operation Economic Outcast and intensify pressure on Iran’s economic and logistical infrastructure
