EU leaders mull new Iran sanctions after attack on Israel

BRUSSELS - European Union leaders met on Wednesday to discuss stepping up sanctions against Iran after Tehran's missile and drone attack on Israel left world powers scrambling to prevent a wider conflict in the Middle East.

"We have to adjust, to expand them on Iran," said French President Emmanuel Macron. "We are in favour of sanctions that can also target all those who help manufacture drones and missiles that were used in the attacks." "The EU is ready to take further restrictive measures against Iran, notably in relation to unmanned aerial vehicles and missiles," said the statement.

The EU already has multiple sanctions programmes that target Iran - for human rights abuses, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and Tehran's support for Russia's war in Ukraine. On Tuesday, the bloc's top diplomat said the bloc's rules meant that could only happen if a national authority in the EU found that the group had been involved in terrorist activity.
