Israel -ran War: The ongoing war between Iran and Israel has been going on for the last seven days and both countries are carrying out a lot of attacks on each other. Hundreds of people have lost their lives in this war so far. Amid the war between the two countries, the US on Friday imposed new sanctions on some companies and individuals from China, Hong Kong, Türkiye and Singapore. They are alleged that they were helping Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to supply machinery required for its weapons programs.
America took this big step
Those who have banned the US include a bulk career ship named Shun Kai Xing, which was running under the Panama flag. The ship was carrying goods for Iran’s Ryan Roshad Afzar Company (RRA) and Tovse Sanye Nim Renshaye Tarashe. The US Treasury Department’s Foreign Electrical Control Office (OFAC) reported that the ship was operated by Hong Kong’s Unico Shipping Company Limited and was involved in an attempt to hide the identity of real Iranian buyers of cargo.
Giving more information in the matter, Brian E. Nelson, Under Secretary, Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Affairs in the US Treasury Department, has said that, the US, Iran is fully committed to preventing efforts to achieve sensitive and double -used technology, machines and efforts. He said, “All these things are associated with Iran’s ballistic missiles, drones and weapons programs. We want to make it clear that those who help in these efforts will have to answer.”
This big step between war
The statement came at a time when Israel claimed to attack several locations within Tehran a few hours ago, in which it also described the nuclear weapon research and development center. In response, Iran’s revolutionary guards carried out several drone attacks. Let me tell you that Iran has so far confirmed the death of 224 people in this struggle, while 25 people have lost their lives in Israel. The situation is constantly becoming serious due to increasing violence between the two countries.
Game of fake companies
According to the American Treasury, the recently banned new companies are Iran’s Ryan Roshad Afzar Company (RRA) and Tovse Sanye Nim Renshaye. Both these companies are associated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) drones and missile programs. The Treasury Department said that these companies have been found involved in the supply or information of sensitive goods. The goods were loaded in the ship ‘Shun Kai Jing’ with a Panama flag, which was run by Hong Kong’s Unico Shipping Company Limited and Ethana Shipping Company Limited. In this entire network, an attempt was made to hide the goods through fake companies and false documents.
Trying to hide the things being sent to Iran
Investigation revealed that the goods loaded in the ship were sensual things being sent to Iran. Singapore’s V-Shipping Private Limited and China’s Shenzhen Shinxin Shipping Company Limited also helped to send the shipment. He participated in efforts to hide it, knowing that the goods are banned.
According to the report of OFAC, the ship ‘Shun Kai Jing’ captain Zhang Yanbang deliberately gave fake shipping records. In addition, the Turkish company Edisa Dis Tikaret Limited Sirti has also been banned, as it helped sending goods through the pre -banned Iranian associate company and played a role in hiding the real recipient.
