- The US sanctioned more than 20 companies, vessels, captains, and port operators this week for shipping Iranian oil to China through shadow fleet vessels.
- These sanctions followed Iran-US nuclear talks and target entities including small 'teapot' refineries and port operators at Dongying Port involved in evading sanctions.
- Designated companies such as Hebei Xinhai Chemical Group and port operators handled shipments valued at hundreds of millions of dollars facilitating oil transfers via ship-to-ship operations.
- The Treasury stated the network aided Iranian oil shipments worth billions of dollars and included firms like CCIC Singapore PTE, which concealed the oil's origins before delivery to China.
- These sanctions aim to disrupt Iranian oil funding linked to missile development, nuclear proliferation, and attacks on regional shipping, as the US pledged to hold the regime accountable.
