The United States and the United Kingdom have announced a coordinated set of sanctions targeting key figures and entities associated with Iran and Yemen's Houthi militia. The sanctions focus on Mohammad Reza Fallahzadeh, the Deputy Commander of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force (IRGC-QF), Sa'id al-Jamal, an Iran-based financier, and include various units within the IRGC-QF (Unit 190, Unit 6000, Unit 340) for their financial or military support to the Houthis. Additionally, a Houthi member and the owner and operator of a vessel involved in shipping over $100 million in Iranian commodities to China have been sanctioned. The sanctions also cover shipping companies supporting Iran's Ministry of Defense. These measures are part of efforts to disrupt the activities of Iran and the Houthis, which threaten regional stability, global commerce, and the safety of maritime routes in the Red Sea, particularly noting the attacks in the Red Sea.
Houthi attacks in the Red Sea have the potential to disrupt commodity markets. The route accounts for 15% of global seaborne trade and a quarter of shipping has been diverted, adding two weeks to the journey. See our full report: https://t.co/FYCiT8vRlv https://t.co/1eOaUbUzJj
