United Nations Security Council / E3UN sanctions on IranConfirmed
All UN sanctions that had been suspended under the 2015 nuclear deal snapped back into force (reinstated at 8:00 p.m. EDT on 27 September / 00:00 GMT 28 September). The reimposed measures include a conventional arms embargo, restrictions on ballistic-missile activity, a ban on uranium enrichment and reprocessing, asset freezes, and travel bans. This followed the UN Security Council's rejection of a Russia-China bid to delay the snapback.
