Iran Press/ Iran news: "The first list of the people working with FDD will be given to the Judiciary Branch to be added on the sanctions list," Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi said on Thursday.
On August 24, Iran put the FDD and its Chief Executive Mark Dubowitz in the list of sanctions over their role in 'endangering the Iranian people’s security and vital interests' by encouraging the US maximum pressure on Iran, Iran Press reported.
The move came after Washington designated Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on, July 31.

Many countries, international organizations and international media have opposed the slapping of sanctions on Zarif, saying this US move is illogical, unhelpful, unlikely to resolve anything, and would only heighten tensions further.
The US reimposed economic sanctions on Iran in August and October 2018 following its withdrawal from the nuclear agreement, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
Mark Dubowitz has been heavily using Twitter and other social media to spread the Donald Trump Administration’s propaganda in defense of Washington’s sanctions on the Iranian nation, government, and its political system.
