The United States and its allies will impose new sanctions on Iran in the wake of its “unprecedented” air attack against Israel, the White House announced on April 16.

President Biden is currently coordinating with allies and partners, including the Group of Seven (G7)—which includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom—and with bipartisan Congress leaders, on a “comprehensive response” to the April 13 attack, White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said.
