“The sanctions we announced today underscore the United States’ determination to disrupt Hamas’ financing networks by using our counterterrorism sanctions powers and working with our global partners to prevent Hamas from exploiting the international financial system,” the organization said in a statement. It was said.
Among those targeted by US sanctions are Khalid Kaddoumi, identified as the person who provided liaison between Hamas and the Iranian government, and Revolutionary Guard Quds Force officials Ali Morshed Shirazi and Mostafa Mohammad Khani, who are accused of training and aiding Hamas members.
The USA also decided to impose sanctions on dozens of organizations, including Iranian Bonyad Shahid, also known as the Martyrs Foundation. US officials stated that this group, which is affiliated with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, transferred millions of dollars to the families of militants through the Gaza-based Al-Ansar Relief Association.
