U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Washington is now tracking significant financial flows leaving Iran, with regime-linked funds moving into banks and financial institutions abroad.
These developments follow documented sanctions evasion activity involving crypto networks tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, alongside reports of additional asset movements outside the country.
At the same time, Israel’s state aircraft Wing of Zion has again left Israeli airspace, U.S. personnel and naval assets are repositioning, commercial shipping has altered activity near Iranian ports, and the United States Navy is increasing its presence in the Persian Gulf.
None of this confirms conflict is imminent. But taken together, these signals point to preparation rather than routine movement.
