Their slopes cascade gracefully to meet the lake’s edge. The crisp morning air renews, while the trees stand still, their reflections shimmer gently on the lake.

Treasury Targets Facilitators for Procuring Sensitive Navigational Systems for Iran 12/18/2024 U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Public Affairs   Press Release:             FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 18, 2024   Contact:                      Treasury Public Affairs; Press@Treasury.gov              Treasury Targets Facilitators for Procuring Sensitive Navigational Systems for Iran WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) is sanctioning two entities and two individuals for their role in developing and procuring components for sensitive navigational systems for the Iranian military. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force Self-Sufficiency Jihad Organization (IRGC ASF SSJO) and other Iranian organizations rely on these strategic components that are necessary for the production and proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and missiles. Concurrent with this action, the U.S. Department of State is designating one individual and two entities involved in Iranian UAV and missile development. Treasury’s action was taken in coordination with the Department of Commerce and the Department of Justice, the latter of which charged and helped coordinate the arrest of one of the individuals OFAC is sanctioning today. “Iran continues to try to acquire these critical components covertly to facilitate the production of its ballistic missile and UAV weapon systems,” said Acting Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Bradley T. Smith. “The United States will continue to disrupt Iran’s attempts to provide its deadly weapons to Russia, its terrorist proxies, and other destabilizing actors around the globe.” Today’s action was taken pursuant to Executive Order (E.O.) 13382, which targets proliferators of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their means of delivery. The Department of State designated the IRGC ASF SSJO pursuant to E.O. 13382 on July 18, 2017 for engaging, or attempting to engage, in activities or transactions that have materially contributed to, or pose a risk of materially contributing to, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction or their means of delivery. UAV NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM PROCUREMENT Iran-based Sanat Danesh Rahpuyan Aflak Company Ltd (SDRA or SADRA) consults, designs, manufactures, and supplies navigation, automation, and instrumentation systems, including those for use in cruise and ballistic missiles, UAVs, unmanned underwater vehicles, and unmanned surface vessels. One of SDRA’s primary systems is the SEPEHR navigation system that is equipped with a tactical MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) sensor, global positioning system, and an inertial measurement unit, which makes the SEPEHR appropriate for aircraft and UAVs. From 2022 to 2023, SDRA sold over one thousand SEPEHR navigational systems to the IRGC ASF SSJO, which constituted a significant portion of SDRA’s net income for the time period. The IRGC ASF SSJO is involved in Iranian ballistic missile research and development and manages Iran’s production of Shahed-series UAVs.

The Prime Minister underscored that the Government of Canada will advance its fight against antisemitism and stand against all forms of hate. He stressed that Jewish Canadians deserve to feel safe, supported, and welcomed.

Prime Minister Trudeau and President Herzog also discussed recent developments in the Middle East. The leaders exchanged on the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and the Prime Minister called for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the release of all hostages, as well as an increase in the flow of humanitarian assistance.

The leaders agreed to remain in contact as the situation continues to evolve.
