The US Treasury Department announced the lifting of sanctions on three entities linked to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The department's update to its sanctions list indicated that these entities are no longer subject to sanctions.
While the US administration did not provide a detailed explanation for the lifting of the sanctions, the Treasury Department stated that the decision was made as part of its update to the sanctions regime.
The move comes at a time when relations between Washington and Tehran are being closely watched, and details regarding the activities of the entities from which sanctions were lifted are expected to become clear in the coming period.
