WASHINGTON (Dispatches) -- The U.S. Treasury hit Iran’s drone program with sanctions on Friday, boosting pressure on Tehran ahead of the reopening of negotiations on the country’s nuclear program.
The sanctions singled out Brigadier General Saeed Aghajani, who leads the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps’ UAV Command. Also named on the sanctions blacklist were two companies, Kimia Part Sivan and Oje Parvaz Mado Nafar, which allegedly provide components for and help develop the armed UAVs of the Revolutionary Guards.
