The US Treasury Department announced new sanctions targeting Iran's nuclear program, just days before anticipated talks between US and Iranian officials in Oman.

The sanctions list includes five entities and one individual, highlighting concerns over Iran's nuclear ambitions. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent emphasized the threat posed by Iran's nuclear activities.
