Iran denounces new sanctions imposed on her by the US

Iran has denounced new sanctions imposed by the US over its ballistic missile programme.  The sanctions has no legal or moral legitimacy.  

In October, Iran tested a precision-guided ballistic missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead, in defiance of a UN ban.  

The US move comes after global economic sanctions on Iran were lifted in line with a deal on its nuclear programme.  

The new sanctions prevent eleven entities and individuals linked to the programme from using the US banking system.

The new US move comes just a day after sanctions against Iran  were  lifted over its nuclear programme.
