US expands sanctions against Iran's oil industry over Israel strikes

The United States hit Iran's oil and petrochemicals sectors with fresh sanctions Friday in response to Tehran's October 1 attack against Israel, designating dozens of new companies and firms.

The sanctions announced by the US Treasury and State departments follow Iran's second direct attack against Israel this year, in which it launched some 200 ballistic missiles in retaliation for the killing of Tehran-backed militant leaders and a general from Iran's Revolutionary Guards.
