- 01 Oct 2025 (OFAC):
OFAC imposed sanctions on 21 entities and 17 individuals based in Iran, the PRC, Hong Kong, Germany, Türkiye, Portugal, and Uruguay, pursuant to EO 13382, for their involvement in networks that facilitate the acquisition of sensitive goods and technology for Iran's Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics, as well as its missile and military aircraft production efforts. These networks have assisted in activities including the procurement of technology for advanced surface-to-air missile systems and the illicit purchase of a U.S.-manufactured helicopter.
This action is in support of the September 27 reimposition of UN sanctions on Iran, pursuant to which, all UN Member States are required to swiftly implement UN restrictions on Iran's nuclear, missile, and other arms programs; including arms embargos, export controls, travel bans, asset freezes, and other restrictions on individuals and entities, including banks, involved in Iranian nuclear and missile activities.
