    A prominent Turkish businessman has been sanctioned by the Biden administration for violating U.S. restrictions on the sale of Iranian oil, the Associated Press reports. Several companies controlled by Sitki Ayan and his family and associates were penalized by the Treasury Department for facilitating the sale of hundreds of millions of dollars of Iranian oil. Treasury said Ayan’s companies have laundered proceeds for both the Guard and Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement, both of which are designated as “foreign terrorist organizations” by the U.S.
