U.S. and EU imposed sanctions on Iran over protests, human rights abuses, and military funding.
The U.S. imposed sanctions on Iran’s Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni and others over their roles in a violent crackdown on protests that killed thousands, targeting IRGC officers and investor Babak Morteza Zanjani for embezzlement and funding Iran’s military programs.
The move includes restrictions on digital exchanges linked to Zanjani.
Concurrently, the EU designated Iran’s IRGC as a terrorist organization, a shift backed by France, Italy, and Israel, aiming to disrupt funding and enhance cooperation.
The EU also sanctioned 15 individuals and six entities over human rights abuses and weapons programs, while expanding export controls.
Iran condemned the EU decision as a strategic error.
