"Biden Administration's Decision on Iran UN Sanctions Boosts Tehran's Ballistic Missile Program"

The Biden administration is set to allow United Nations sanctions on Iran's ballistic missile program to expire, which experts say will be a "huge victory" for Tehran and a potential boost for Hamas in its conflict with Israel. The expiration of the UN embargo on Iran's ability to procure and sell missiles and drones is scheduled for Wednesday. Critics argue that lifting these sanctions rewards Iran for its support of terrorism and proliferation. While the US and European allies have other tools to hold Iran accountable, the decision not to extend the embargo has raised concerns about the potential expansion of Iran's missile capabilities and its support for destabilizing activities in the Middle East.
