US Department of the Treasury Strengthens Iran Sanctions as Part of Operation Economic Outcast

The US Department of the Treasury tightened sanctions on Iran as part of Operation Economic Outcast by suspending several civil aviation-related authorizations, expanding the list of sanctioned Iranian airlines and entities, modifying Iran-specific licensing policies to presume denials, and designating additional entities linked to Iranian proxy groups. These moves signal a stronger enforcement stance and restrict previously available licensing pathways.
