The White House announced Tuesday that it will impose new sanctions on Iran following an attack on Israel over the weekend.
The new sanctions targeting Iran’s missile and drone programs will take place “in the coming days,” security advisor Jake Sullivan said, and are a penalty for Iran releasing hundreds of missiles and drones on Israel after Israel attacked its embassy in Syria, killing seven terrorists.
These new sanctions and other measures will continue a steady drumbeat of pressure to contain and degrade Iran’s military capacity and effectiveness and confront the full range of its problematic behaviors,” Sullivan said.
“President Biden is coordinating with allies and partners, including the G7, and with bipartisan leaders in Congress, on a comprehensive response, “Sullivan said.
“We anticipate that our allies and partners will soon be following with their own sanctions,” he said.
Biden has continued to make policy moves that support and ally with Israel, while expressing verbal concern about its attacks on Gaza in an attempt to annihilate Hamas.
