The U.S. Treasury Department has announced a new round of sanctions targeting Hamas-linked representatives and organizations in its efforts to cut off the terrorist group’s funding following its brutal assault on Israel.

The new sanctions, unveiled on Oct. 27, build upon those issued earlier this month, expanding the list of targeted entities to include a Hamas representative in Iran and members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard, among others.
