    The Department of State has identified several individuals and entities involved in significant transactions related to Iranian petroleum and has placed them on the Department of Treasury's SDN List. According to the Executive Order 13846, these individuals and companies have their properties and interests within the U.S. jurisdiction blocked, and U.S. persons cannot conduct transactions with them. Specifically, entities such as PT. Bintang Samudra Utama from Indonesia and Shipload Maritime Pte. Ltd. from Singapore are listed, along with vessels like MARINA VISION and CELEBES, which are linked to these entities. This action aims to enforce sanctions to curb Iran's support for terrorism and weapons proliferation activities.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Department of State put some people and companies on a special list because they were doing business with Iran in ways that aren't allowed. This means their stuff in the U.S. is "frozen," and people in the U.S. aren't allowed to buy or sell things to them.

    The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) published a notice in the Federal Register about the issuance of licenses for Small Business Investment Companies (SBICs). These licenses are granted under the authority of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, which has been amended over time. The notice, effective August 17, 2023, fulfills a legal requirement to publicly list the names of the SBICs, along with their licensure date and total intended leverage commitments. This information provides transparency about the companies that received support through this program.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Small Business Administration is giving out special permissions called licenses to certain companies that help small businesses grow, but the notice about this doesn't say which companies got these licenses or how much help they will get. They're sharing this information to make sure everybody knows about it, even though some details are missing.
