LONDON, Nov 14 — Britain has added six new designations to its counter-terrorism sanctions list, including four individuals related to the Palestinian militant group Hamas, an update to the UK government website showed today.
The update was published shortly after the United States imposed a third round of sanctions on Hamas, targeting leaders and financiers of the group, following its attack last month on Israel.
The US Treasury Department said in a statement its action was taken in coordination with Britain. — Reuters
