Treasury Targets ISIS-linked Human Smuggling Network in Coordinated Action with Türkiye

WASHINGTON — Today, the United States imposed sanctions on four individuals with links to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), including members of an ISIS-linked human smuggling network. The investigations into these targets, as well as their subsequent designations, were taken in close coordination with the Government of Türkiye. As a result of this close cooperation, the Government of Türkiye is concurrently taking its own domestic action against this network.“Today’s coordinated action with Türkiye demonstrates our continued commitment to the defense of the homeland against all terrorist threats, including the so-called Islamic State or ISIS,” said Under Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian E. Nelson.
