Washingtons latest Iran squeeze runs on wheels: The United States has imposed new sanctions targeting Iran's automotive and rail industries as of October 1.

Additionally, Iranian railway entities including the Islamic Republic of Iran Railway Company have also been sanctioned. This framework allows blocking sanctions on designated companies and individuals in these sectors.
