What Happened
International Flights Continue Amid Mounting Pressure
Iranian airlines have continued to operate international flights despite a US deadline aimed at grounding the country’s fleet through sanctions. The US Treasury Secretary has warned foreign companies against providing services to Iranian carriers, but flights have persisted, with some airlines finding ways to circumvent the restrictions. The situation remains uncertain, with travelers facing difficulties in determining which flights are still operating and what alternatives remain. According to Bloomberg, the US sanctions have targeted the Iranian aviation sector, accusing it of transporting weapons and illicit cargo.
