MAY 21,
2025

Today, the Department of State made two new
determinations with sanctions implications pursuant to
Section 1245 of the Iran Freedom and Counter-Proliferation
Act of 2012 (IFCA). The Department of State identified
Iran’s construction sector as being controlled directly or
indirectly by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
who only build terror and chaos, and identified 10
additional strategic materials that Iran is using in
connection with its nuclear, military, or ballistic missile
programs.

With these determinations, the United States
has broader sanctions authorities to prevent Iran from
acquiring strategic materials for its construction sector
under IRGC control and its proliferation
programs.
