Hamas<\/b><\/h3>\n

Following the October 7 attacks <\/b>on Israel<\/b> and its civilian population, the Office of Foreign Assets Control <\/b>(OFAC) of the US Treasury Department imposed a second round of sanctions <\/b>on key Hamas-linked officials and financial networks.<\/b><\/p>\n

This action targets additional assets in Hamas\u2019s investment portfolio and individuals who are facilitating sanctions evasion by Hamas-affiliated companies. OFAC is also designating a Hamas official in Iran and members of Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), as well as a Gaza-based entity that has served as a conduit for illicit Iranian funds to Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ). These designations underscore the critical role Iran plays in providing financial, logistical, and operational support to Hamas.<\/p>\n

In order to degrade the regime\u2019s ability to purchase weapons <\/b>to carry out violent acts <\/b>against the people of Burma, OFAC published a new directive<\/b><\/a> that prohibits<\/b> certain financial services <\/b>by U.S. persons to or for the benefit of Myanma Oil and Gas Enterprise (MOGE).<\/b><\/p>\n
