Biden administration imposes new sanctions on Iran's missile and drone programs as UN ban expires

The Biden administration has announced new sanctions and measures to maintain restrictions on Iran's ballistic missile and drone programs, following the expiration of U.N. Security Council sanctions on Tehran's missile arsenal. The U.S. accused Iran of complicity in the recent Hamas attack on Israel and expressed concerns about Iran's proliferation of missiles and drones. Russia has stated that it is no longer bound by the U.N. restrictions, but it remains unclear if it will provide assistance to Iran's missile projects. The Biden administration has sanctioned individuals, entities, and a vessel for supporting Iran's missile and drone production, and issued an advisory to prevent the supply of related items to Iran. Critics argue that the U.S. should have prevented the expiration of the U.N. sanctions and taken stronger action against Iran.
