U.S. Hits Iran With More Sanctions

Map of Iran

The U.S. is imposing more sanctions on Iran. New sanctions are directed at Iran's space agency, which the U.S. accuses of developing ballistic missiles disguised as a civilian satellite program. In a statement, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the U.S. will not allow Iran to "use its space launch program as cover to advance it's ballistic missile programs." President Trump recently tweeted a surveillance photo of the aftermath of a failed Iranian launch and said the U.S. played no role in the mishap.
