US reinstates all sanctions on Iran suspended under 2015 nuclear deal

United States has announced it is re-instating all sanctions on Iran suspended under the 2015 nuclear deal.

The decision has come six months after president Donald Trump's announcement of withdrawing US from the eight-party deal signed by Barack Obama with the intention of limiting Iran’s nuclear program.

The White House said, it will be the toughest sanctions regime ever imposed on Iran which will target Iran's energy, shipping and banking sectors.
