The U.S. Treasury Department on Friday blacklisted the Iranian oil tanker Adrian Darya, which is at the centre of a confrontation between Washington and Tehran, and sanctioned its captain, AzVision.az reports citing Reuters.
“Vessels like the Adrian Darya 1 enable the (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force) to ship and transfer large volumes of oil, which they attempt to mask and sell illicitly to fund the regime’s malign activities and propagate terrorism,” Treasury Under Secretary Sigal Mandelker said in a statement.
“Anyone providing support to the Adrian Darya 1 risks being sanctioned,” she said.
