  "summary": "The United States has imposed sanctions on all remaining active Iranian airlines, intensifying pressure on Tehran's aviation sector as part of a broader effort to isolate the country from international trade and finance. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that the aviation sector is used by the Iranian government to transport weapons, personnel, and illicit cargo. The sanctions target 36 entities, including 27 Iranian airlines, foreign companies, and an individual accused of aiding Iran's aviation networks in acquiring aircraft and technology. This move is part of President Donald Trump's Operation Economic Outcast, which aims to sever Iran's remaining economic lifelines.",
