UK Amends 2 Entries Under ISIL Sanctions List
The U.K. amended two entries under its ISIL (Da'esh) and al-Qaida sanctions list in a July 25 notice. The listings of Faysal Ahmad Bin Ali Al-Zahrani, ISIL's lead oil and gas division official, and Yazid Sufaat, founding member of Jemaah Islamiyah, were updated. Al-Zahrani's listing was changed to reflect that he is reportedly deceased; Sufaat's was changed to say he completed detention Nov. 20, 2019, and then served a two-year restricted residence order in Malaysia until Nov. 21, 2021. The measures follow similar actions by the U.N. Security Council this week (see 2307240016).
