The move came after the US Senate approved sanctions on Friday against Iran for launching a satellite-carrying rocket into space. The US legislation imposes mandatory penalties on people involved in Iran’s ballistic missile program and anyone who does business with them. It would also apply terrorism sanctions to Iran’s prestigious Revolutionary Guard and enforce an arms embargo. It now goes to President Donald Trump for signing. Iran has said the US legislation amounts to a “hostile” breach of a landmark 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers.
