President Trump signs"hard-hitting" sanctions on Iran's supreme leader as Vice President Mike Pence, right, and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin look on at the White House on Monday.
The sanctions, Trump said, are a response to"a series of aggressive actions," including the drone strike. The measures aim to restrict the supreme leader's"access to key financial resources and support," said Trump, noting that the leader is"responsible" for Iran's hostile conduct. Trump opted not to respond militarily to the drone strike last week, canceling a planned missile strike at the last minute.
