The US Treasury has reported that a pressure campaign launched two months prior has significantly reduced Iran's oil revenue and access to international trade and financial channels, leading to deeper economic isolation. The report, titled 'Operation Economic Outcast: Iran's Isolation by the Numbers,' indicates that Iran has loaded no oil onto vessels since August 25, overland trade faces bottlenecks, and restrictions have expanded across aviation and banking. Additionally, the rial has fallen by approximately 25% since August 24, and year-on-year inflation rose to about 90% in September.
