# Translation The US Treasury Department announced today, Thursday, that it will prevent Iranian airlines from accessing airports, refueling, and ticket sales, as part of new measures targeting Iran's civil aviation sector. Washington imposed sanctions on two Iranian civilian airlines as part of a package of measures it said aimed at increasing economic pressure on Tehran. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the United States also imposed sanctions on Iran's Strait of Hormuz authority, warning companies and countries against paying any transit fees to the authority or attempting to conceal them under the guise of aid.
