United Nations will restore sanctions against Iran on Saturday after Security Council members rejected a Russian-Chinese proposal for delay. The failed resolution received support from only four of the 15 council members during Friday voting. European nations triggered the sanctions return process last month by accusing Tehran of breaking its 2015 nuclear agreement. Iran maintains it does not seek atomic weapons development.
The restored penalties target Iran's military and economic sectors through multiple restrictions. Arms sales face immediate prohibition while uranium processing activities become banned worldwide. Financial assets will freeze and travel restrictions apply to Iranian officials and organizations. Energy sector operations also encounter new limitations under the restored measures.
