The United States has imposed sanctions on 29 ships and their management companies allegedly involved in transporting Iranian crude oil and petroleum products. The US Treasury Department stated that these vessels, described as part of Iran’s 'ghost fleet,' used deceptive practices to move hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of oil in violation of existing sanctions. The ships are reportedly old, with opaque ownership structures and documentation that fails to meet international port standards.
Washington said the move aims to curb Tehran’s funding sources for its nuclear program and regional militant groups. Iran, however, insists its nuclear activities are for civilian purposes. The new sanctions come amid heightened tensions following five rounds of failed indirect nuclear talks and a 12-day air conflict in June, during which US and Israeli forces targeted Iranian nuclear facilities.
Analysts say the sanctions could further strain global energy markets and complicate diplomatic efforts to revive nuclear negotiations. The Iranian mission to the United Nations has not commented on the latest measures.
