Treasury Department Targets Mahan Air And Other Carriers
The US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has taken action against Iran’s aviation sector, imposing sanctions on 36 targets, including Mahan Air and other airlines, as well as companies supporting these carriers. The sanctions aim to prevent the procurement of aircraft and the transport of illicit cargo. The move is part of the broader Operation Economic Outcast and follows concerns over Iran’s use of its aviation sector for military and illicit purposes. The sanctions were reported by Simple Flying.
