The U.S. has imposed sanctions on 10 individuals and companies from Iran and Venezuela, accusing Tehran of supplying conventional weapons, including drones and missile components, to Caracas. The Treasury Department stated these measures reinforce reimposed UN sanctions on Iran's nuclear program and aim to block access to the U.S. financial system for those supporting Iran's military. Officials claim this proliferation threatens U.S. interests and allies in the Middle East and Western Hemisphere. President Trump also reiterated warnings to Iran regarding its nuclear activities while expressing openness to diplomatic engagement.
