U.S. Sanctions 10 People and Firms from Iran and Venezuela

HeadlineDec 31, 2025

The U.S. Treasury sanctioned 10 people and firms from Iran and Venezuela over allegedly supporting Iran’s drone trade and ballistics program. It follows President Trump’s announcement of a maximum pressure campaign against Iran over its nuclear program earlier this year, which led to U.S. strikes against three nuclear enrichment facilities in Iran over the summer. Iran continues to claim that its nuclear program is peaceful and for civilian purposes.
