The Trump Administration is intensifying pressure on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) by targeting the financial networks that enable its illicit oil operations.
Today, the United States is sanctioning a network involved in selling and shipping Iranian oil to overseas buyers on behalf of the IRGC and three senior officials from the IRGC's Shahid Purja'fari Oil Headquarters who coordinate these illicit transactions. These actions disrupt illicit funding streams that finance Iran's support for terrorist proxies and regional aggression. These oil revenues belong to the Iranian people, who face daily economic hardship due to the Iranian regime's corruption, mismanagement, and prioritization of funding terrorist militias and weapons programs over addressing the basic needs of its citizens.
This action represents an additional round of sanctions under Economic Fury, part of the Administration's maximum pressure campaign against Iran. The United States will continue denying the Iranian regime access to revenue that funds terrorism, threatens regional stability, and enables attacks on U.S. forces and allies.
Additionally, the U.S. Department of State's Rewards for Justice program is offering a reward
