- The US Treasury has launched 'Operation Economic Outcast,' an aggressive sanctions campaign targeting nearly 60 Iranian entities involved in oil smuggling, nuclear/missile procurement, and cyber operations.
- Notably, the sanctions include crypto facilitators, aiming to disrupt Iran's use of digital assets to circumvent traditional financial channels.
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent acknowledged that while this is the most significant financial offensive against Iran, it alone will not end the conflict, highlighting the need for a broader strategy.
