OFAC Issues Global Terrorist-Related Sanctions

The Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control added one person and one entity to its Specially Designated Nationals List, OFAC said in a July 2 notice. In Federal Register notices, the State Department said Lebanon-based Husain Ali Hazzima and the Pakistan-based Balochistan Liberation Army are each designated as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. Both pose "a significant risk of committing" acts of "terrorism that threaten” the U.S. or its national or economic security, State said. OFAC also added several aliases for Jundallah, an Iran-based militant organization, which maintained its State Department designation as a foreign terrorist organization (see 1907010011).
