AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
Oil prices rose for a second consecutive day after the U.S. tightened sanctions on Iran's oil sector, intensifying economic pressure on Tehran.
The fresh sanctions target individuals and oil tankers operating across China, the United Arab Emirates, and India, accused of financing Iran and its backing of militant groups. The move comes as President Donald Trump pushes to cut Iran's oil exports to zero to apply pressure over its nuclear program.
Newsweek has reached out to Iran's Foreign Ministry for comment via email.
