Abstract:
On June 22, 2026, the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated three individuals and six entities across Europe, the Middle East, and West Africa for facilitating financial transactions on behalf of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The action is directed at key facilitators who enable ISIS to move funds among its regional affiliates and helps protect the rights of religious minorities whom ISIS and ISIS-inspired violence has targeted.
