UN, UK Add to Sanctions List

The U.N. Security Council and the U.K. this week added one entry to its ISIL (Da'esh) and al-Qaida sanctions regimes. The designation targets Pakistan national Abdul Rehman Makki, who is the chief of Lashkar-e-Tayyiba, a militant Islamist organization. The U.K. also corrected the entry for Mohammad Jafar Montazeri under its Iran (Human Rights) sanctions list.
