OFAC imposed blocking sanctions on three individuals (one in France, one in Syria, one in Nigeria), six entities (two in Turkey, one in Syria, three in Nigeria), targeting two networks under its Counter Terrorism sanctions program. The first comprises transregional ISIS facilitators operating across Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa—including Abdelhakim Boukich, who operates Bitcoin Xchange, a Syria-based money service business that transferred funds on behalf of ISIS associates from Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands, South Africa, and the United States. The second is an ISIS-West Africa (ISIS-WA) financial network centered on Nigerian-based Mukhtar Adamu Muhammad, who moved funds through three bureaus de change (Nine to Nine Exchange, Manhattan Bureau, and Generation Currency). This action follows the May 16, 2026 killing of ISIS's number two official, Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, who led ISIS's General Directorate of Provinces.
