EU approves new sanctions against Iran
European Union foreign ministers meeting in Luxembourg have approved sanctions against Tehran for supplying missiles to Moscow's forces in Ukraine, DW reports.
The sanctions target businesses and people involved in Iran's ballistic missile program, as well as those involved in the delivery of military hardware to Russia.
Brussels has warned Iran several times against sending ballistic missiles to Russia and views the alleged development as breaching a new taboo.
Iran has strongly denied supplying Russia with the weapons.
Iran says that, although it has a strategic cooperation with Moscow, this is not related to the war in Ukraine. It maintains that the provision of military aid to warring parties is inhumane.
