US sanctions target Russian bank for ties to Tehran
The United States imposed new sanctions on the Russian VTB Bank, accusing it of helping to circumvent American sanctions imposed on Iran. This follows the bank's previous sanctions in 2022 due to its role in the Russian-Ukrainian war. These measures are part of a U.S. campaign to cut off funding for Iran's military, missile, and sabotage activities, targeting entities and individuals in Iraq, Lebanon, and Turkey who support groups affiliated with Hezbollah.
