OFAC has added six SDGTs to its Terrorist list. Their assets must be blocked immediately. Five of them--CONTINUITY IRA (CIRA), LOYALIST VOLUNTEER FORCE (LVF), ORANGE VOLUNTEERS, RED HAND DEFENDERS (RHD), and ULSTER DEFENCE ASSOCIATION (a.k.a. ULSTER FREEDOM FIGHTERS)--are especially active in the UK. One--FIRST OF OCTOBER ANTIFASCIST RESISTANCE GROUP (GRAPO)--is especially active in Spain. All of OFAC's SDN material has been revised accordingly, including delimited and fixed field files. OFAC's Terrorism brochure has also been updated to incorporate the new entries.
