The Trump administration, in coordination with Israel and several Gulf states, is pushing a plan to slap a long string of new sanctions on Iran in the 10 weeks left until Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20, according to two Israeli sources briefed on the effort, Axios reported.

The Trump administration’s envoy for Iran, Elliott Abrams, arrived in Israel on Sunday and met Prime Minister Netanyahu and National Security adviser Meir Ben-Shabbat to discuss the sanctions plan.

Abrams will meet on Monday with Minister of Defense Benny Gantz, and Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi to brief them on the plan.

The Trump administration believes such a “flood” of sanctions will increase pressure on the Iranians and make it harder for the Biden administration to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, the Israeli sources said.

Abrams said in a closed briefing several days ago that the Trump administration wants to announce a new set of sanctions on Iran every week until January 20, a source who was privy to the briefing said.

The goal is to impose sanctions on Iran that are connected to its ballistic missile program, Iranian assistance to terror organizations and Iranian human rights violations.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is arriving in Israel on November 18, Israeli and US officials said. Pompeo will likely visit other countries in the region as well. His trip is also going to focus on the Trump administration’s last-ditch effort to increase pressure on Iran.
