A cluster of shell companies in Hong Kong, Singapore and Dubai \u2014 used to funnel payments through intermediary accounts \u2014 was also designated.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Separately, the Treasury Department&#8217;s Office of Foreign Assets Control sanctioned former Fly Baghdad CEO Basheer Abdulkadhim Alwan al-Shabbani for allegedly helping the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force move fighters, weapons, and money to militia groups in the region. Earlier this week, however, OFAC <a href=\"https:\/\/ofac.treasury.gov\/recent-actions\/20260805\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">removed Fly Baghdad<\/a> from its sanctions list.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a separate statement, State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott said the measures are intended to &#8220;cut the financial lifelines that sustain Iran&#8217;s ruling elite.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Through these networks, Tehran accessed oil revenue and evaded sanctions designed to curb its destabilizing activities, laundering funds using front companies,&#8221; Pigott said.<\/p>\n<p>The sanctions are part of the Trump administration&#8217;s effort to apply economic tools to pressure Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and eventually end the war that the administration originally said would last four to six weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The war, now in its sixth month, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/iran-conflict-trump-opinion-poll\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">has proven unpopular<\/a>. A recent CBS News poll found 63% of Americans think the conflict is not going well, 67% say to end it now and 69% say they are not getting a clear understanding of what&#8217;s happening on a day-to-day basis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Asked on Thursday about the state of negotiations, President Trump said, &#8220;we&#8217;re doing fine&#8221; and a deal could be announced &#8220;soon.&#8221;
