UK Adds to Sudan Sanctions, Drops 1 From Syria Restrictions

The U.K.'s Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation, in a July 12 notice, added six entities to its Sudan sanctions regime. The entries are for Al Junaid Multi Activities Co., Defense Industries System, GSK Advance Company, Sudan Master Technology, Tradive General Trading and Zadna International Company for Investment. All were listed for their roles in threatening the security of Sudan due to their support for one of the parties in the conflict between factions of the military government.

In a separate notice, OFSI removed Abdelkader Sabra, owner and senior member of numerous political and business organizations, from its Syria sanctions list.
