Members of Iran’s ruling elite are reportedly moving “tens of millions of dollars” abroad in response to new U.S. sanctions related to the regime’s crackdown on protests. The U.S. Treasury Department has identified significant capital flight, with reports of Mojtaba Khamenei transferring approximately $328 million overseas. Experts emphasize the importance of monitoring and potentially seizing these assets, as Iran’s shadow banking system is deeply integrated into global finance. The situation raises questions about U.S. foreign policy and potential military responses following the violent repression of dissent in Iran.
