“I will order the Ministry of Finance to tighten sanctions significantly against the Iranian state,” Trump said on Twitter, without specifying other details.
Additional sanctions follow earlier that Washington has decided on Tehran since the US withdrew from an international agreement on Iran's nuclear programme in May 2018.
American authorities have not ruled out the possibility of a military response following the attack on Saudi objects.
The attack has further raised tensions between the US and Iran after Washington accused Tehran officially of laging behind for the attack, even though Shiite rebels are taking responsibility.
