    The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced that one person and one organization have been added to their Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List. This decision was made because they met certain legal criteria under U.S. sanctions programs. As a result, all assets these parties have in the U.S. are blocked, and Americans are generally not allowed to do business with them. This action was taken on March 5, 2025, and more details can be found on OFAC's website.
