Iran Press/America: According to the U.S., these cyber operations involved spear phishing and malware attacks targeting over a dozen American businesses and government agencies.
The individuals and firms targeted by these sanctions are what the Treasury alleged to be integral parts of the IRGC's Cyber Electronic Command (IRGC-CEC), handling cyber warfare efforts on behalf of Iran.
Tuesday's sanctions are the latest against Tehran by the United States.
The new sanctions come after the Iranian military conducted a successful punitive attack on the Zionist regime of Israel on April 13 in response to its earlier terrorist attack on Iran's consulate in Damascus, Syria on April 1.
