Washington sanctions 27 Iranian flight firms
The U.S. Department of the Treasury has expanded its sanctions on the Iranian aviation sector by adding 36 new targets, including 27 Iranian airlines and 8 foreign companies providing airline and cargo services, as well as an Egyptian businessman residing in the UAE. The list includes Iranian airlines such as Iran Shiraaz, Asa Jet, Iran Air, and others, with the exception of Mahan Air, which was previously listed. The sanctions also target foreign companies like Iberrow, ECT, and Dualien, which support efforts to undermine Mahan Air and Sky Phoenix, including the CEO who facilitated aircraft transfers between the UAE and Oman. These sanctions aim to freeze the assets of listed entities both inside and outside the United States and prohibit dealings with them, impacting insurance payments and ground services. However, they do not include halting domestic flights or closing Iranian airspace, and airlines are expected to continue operations in accordance with safety standards, despite potential increased costs.
