Sanctions target Iranian military leaders as G7 plots to avoid war

Rishi Sunak said the move against the "ringleaders" of the assault will "further limit Iran's ability to destabilise" the Middle East.

The UK yesterday added seven individuals and six entities involved in Tehran's drone and ballistic missile sector to its sanctions list.

The new entries include the leadership of Iran's armed forces and defence minister Mohammad Reza Ashtiani. They are subject to a travel ban and an asset freeze.

The Prime Minister said: "The Iranian regime's attack against Israel was a reckless act and a dangerous escalation. Today we have sanctioned the ringleaders of the Iranian military and forces responsible for the weekend's attack.

"These sanctions announced with the US show we unequivocally condemn this behaviour, and they will further limit Iran's ability to destabilise the region."
