The US Treasury sanctioned nearly 60 Iran-linked entities, people and vessels across nuclear, missile, cyber and oil networks, the department said in a statement on Monday, APA reports.
The sanctions targeted a network of broker companies and shadow-fleet vessels across the United Arab Emirates, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Switzerland and Europe.
The Treasury also targeted the digital assets, technology, gold, aviation and shipping sectors for potential secondary sanctions.
It also suspended general licenses that had allowed some remittance payments to Iran.
