The UK, France and Germany said they have imposed fresh sanctions on Iran for supplying Russia with ballistic missiles for use in Ukraine, including restrictions on national carrier Iran Air’s ability to fly to the UK and Europe.
Also among the new measures, which have been announced as US Secretary of State Antony Blinken visits London, are travel bans and asset freezes on a number of Iranians accused of facilitating military support for Russia.
Mr Blinken said Russians had been trained by Iranian forces to use short-range ballistic missiles and that they could be deployed against Ukrainians within weeks.
Iran has repeatedly denied supplying ballistic missiles to Russia.
