The US has imposed sanctions on Pakistani arms supplier Waseem Pasha Tajammal and his companies, citing alleged involvement in supplying weapons to Iran. Tajammal, the majority shareholder and CEO of Cavalier Dynamics Private Limited, is accused of acting as a third-party intermediary to procure and distribute weapons for Iran's Ministry of Defence and Armed Forces Logistics.
The three companies, including Cavalier Dynamics for Technologies Company and its subsidiaries, are sanctioned for allegedly providing support to Modafl, Iran's weapons procurement body. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent emphasized that these sanctions are part of Operation Economic Outcast, aimed at disrupting Iran's terrorist activities and isolation of its enablers.
The sanctions target Tajammal, his companies, and several individuals involved in the procurement process, including a Modafl representative in Beijing and a subsidiary involved in drone and military aircraft development.
