President Biden's administration announced sanctions against roughly1,000 entities and individuals that Iran uses to support terrorism Wednesday morning.
The sanctions include 10 senior members and "financial facilitators" of the Hamas terrorist group, as well as roughly 1,000 individuals and entities connected to Iranian terror financing. The sanctions struck Hamas, Hezbollah and other terror organizations in the Middle East that a senior Treasury official said were part of "a massive financial network."
The 10 individuals relating to Hamas are based in Gaza, Qatar, Turkey, Algeria and Sudan, the White House says. The Treasury Department sanctions will seek to "track, freeze and seize" Hamas-related assets across the globe.
