The US government has broadened sanctions against Iran targeting cryptocurrency, aviation, shipping, and gold sectors as part of a major economic effort termed 'economic D-Day'. These expanded sanctions aim to tighten financial restrictions and isolate Iran from global trade networks.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.
