The United States has removed counterterrorism sanctions from two aircraft ⁠and three airlines with links to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, ⁠according to details posted to the ⁠US Treasury Department's website, Reuters reports.


The sanction removal came after President Donald Trump said his administration had "very good discussions" with Iran during all-day negotiations on August 4, fuelling expectations of an imminent end to the five-month conflict.
