Company:notes | "The weapons were found onboard planes operated by Ukraine’s UM Airlines, which officially partners with Iran’s Mahan Air. The United States has sanctioned both carriers for providing support to Iran’s terror network, including the transportation of weapons and resources to the terror group Hezbollah, an Iranian proxy group. Business between UM and Mahan reached its highest levels following the Iran nuclear agreement, when the Obama administration lifted longstanding economic sanctions on Iran. Removing the sanctions paved the way for the airline partnership and the multi-billion dollar trade deals between Iran, Boeing, and Airbus. Mahan officially entered the Ukrainian marketplace in 2016 and now partners with UM on daily flights into Tehran." (Washington Free Beacon, "Sanctioned Iranian Airlines Ferrying Illicit Weapons to Tehran," 1/24/2017).
