The United States has announced new sanctions targeting ISIL in Somalia after recent terrorist attacks in the country have left hundreds dead and thousands injured.

In a statement, the US Department of Treasury said the new round of sanctions would target eight individuals and one company that have operated illegal weapons trafficking network that is “closely integrated with ISIL in Somalia.” The sanctions would seize “all property and interests in property of these persons that are in the United States or in the possession or control of US persons must be blocked and reported to OFAC. In addition, any entities that are owned, directly or indirectly, 50 percent or more by one or more blocked persons are also blocked.”

The sanctions come after a violent terrorist attack on October 29, in the capital city of Mogadishu, that left 100+ dead and nearly 300 civilians injured. In a statement, Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence said, “We extend our heartfelt condolences to all who lost loved ones and were injured in Saturday’s horrific attack and strongly condemn this indefensible act of terrorism. Today, we take direct aim at the networks funding and supplying both ISIS-Somalia and al-Shabaab that support their violent acts.”
