This article noted that despite US officials' claims, these sanctions function as a tool of economic war and have "serious detrimental impact on the health and lives of Iranians individuals."
"Washington claims that maximum pressure won’t stop the supply of medicine and other humanitarian necessities, but these sanctions are killing cancer patients in Iran," it added.
