228 members of the Iranian parliament (Majlis) on Wednesday condemned Britain's recent sanction against the Islamic Republic of Iran's banking sector, saying that the move was another token of hostility toward the Iranian nation.

The United States, Britain and Canada announced fresh plans Monday to sanction Iran's financial and energy sectors in a move to raise pressure on Tehran to halt its nuclear program.

Britain banned dealings with Iranian banks including the central bank.
