In a statement issued by the US Department of Treasury today, at least 15 countries in the Middle East and North Africa region were targeted by these entities and individuals, including hundreds of individuals and entities from more than 30 different countries across Asia, Africa, Europe, and North America.

The statement affirmed that the United States of America will continue to expose the Iranian malign actions.
