OFAC targets Iranian supporters of Yemeni terrorists

The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has designated five Iranian individuals who have provided ballistic missile-related technical expertise to Yemen’s Huthi terrorists, and who have transferred weapons not seen in Yemen prior to the current conflict, on behalf of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force (IRGC-QF). For identification information on the five targeted individuals, see our OFAC Update.

As a result of these actions, all property and interests in property of those designated today subject to U.S. jurisdiction are blocked, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with them. In addition, foreign financial institutions that knowingly facilitate significant transactions for, or persons that provide material or certain other support to, the individuals and entities designated today risk exposure to sanctions that could sever their access to the U.S. financial system or block their property and interests in property under U.S. jurisdiction.
