U.S. SANCTIONS 17 VESSELS AS IRAN HALTS OIL SHIPMENTS
The U.S. Treasury has sanctioned 17 vessels involved in transporting Iranian crude oil, petroleum products and petrochemicals.
A Treasury official says Iran has stopped both loading and unloading crude oil tankers due to the U.S. blockade and sanctions.
Washington estimates Iran still has 20 million barrels of crude oil aboard vessels outside the blockade of Iranian ports.
