The US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) updated its Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list on September 29. The list names people and entities subject to sanctions. OFAC added 23 people and 29 entities and revised records for six other parties. The notice did not specify separate effective dates for the measures.
The new entries include 19 people linked to the Sinaloa Cartel, among them Ismael Zambada Sicairos, known as “Mayito Flaco,” and 29 Mexican companies. The businesses operate in real estate, trade, financial services, security, fuel, hospitality and entertainment.
Also added were Ali Fotovat Ahmadi, Parisa Lali and Feng Li, who are linked to Iran’s Kavoshcom Asia R and D Group, as well as representatives from Pakistan and Iran linked to Iran’s Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics.
