US President Donald Trump claimed in a speech at the White House that Iran would've "blown up the Middle East" if the US hadn't attacked with B-2 bombers and assured that the war would be over soon.
This is not the first time Iran has put out a bounty on US troops. In August, Iranian Army Commander-in-Chief Amir Hatami announced a similar $30,000 reward.
The announcement follows Reuters reporting on Monday that the Trump administration was set to grant a one-month US Treasury waiver allowing Iraqi Airways to fly between Iran and Najaf.
Iran’s judiciary chief Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei alleged that “social abnormalities” and “nudity” in Iranian streets cause distress among Iran's "religious people."
The report found that 84% of crypto wallets that have been sanctioned by the US transacted in USDT, such as to help the Iranian government move money across its borders and support its currency.
How far economic strain may push Iran towards diplomatic compromise is unclear, as it tightens its own stranglehold on Gulf energy exports through the Strait of Hormuz, driving up oil and gas prices.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov was responding to comments from Iranian officials about Tehran's possible withdrawal from the treaty, which commits Tehran not to develop or acquire nuclear weapons.

"We're going to win; as far as I'm concerned, it's going to be one way or the other," Trump said in the Oval Office. "It's going to go pretty quickly."
A source says that the waiver would allow Iraqi Airways to fly to and from the Shi'ite holy city of Najaf for one month, with a more permanent waiver potentially coming into place.
A US official told the 'Post' that indirect negotiations between US and Iranian officials have remained positive and constructive, but no deal will be made unless they address nuclear issues.
