"Both events represent simultaneous US measures to pressure Iran. Event 4 involves economic sanctions on the aviation sector, while the new event involves diplomatic restrictions (visa denials). Together, they illustrate a multi-vector US strategy of isolating Iranian state actors and infrastructure."
