On 30 July 2026, the U.S. Treasury Department announced sanctions against six entities and individuals located in China, India, Russia, and Iran. The sanctions target multiple companies that acted as general sales agents for Mahan Air, an Iranian airline already sanctioned by the U.S. and the European Union. Additionally, the Treasury blacklisted an IRGC-affiliated front company that has supported Iran's kinetic targeting during the ongoing conflict. The move underscores continued U.S. efforts to disrupt Iranian aviation and military support networks amid regional hostilities.
