The announcement extends a pressure campaign the Trump administration has waged since April under the banner Operation Economic Fury.

US president announces 'causing economic operation' against Iran, vows measures against nations trading with Tehran.

Trump warned Iran that “economic D-Day” is coming after he backed away this week from peace talks seeking to resolve the conflict.
