The U.S. Department of the Treasury designated seven Egyptian individuals pursuant to Executive Order 13224 for acting for and on behalf of Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ), a terrorist group that merged with al Qaida in 2001.
This action targets the financing mechanisms used by those rogue actors supporting al Qaida, said Robert Werner, Director of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). Designations are central to identifying and disrupting the support networks fueling al Qaida's agenda.
