The US sanctioned 15 members of al-Shabaab operating in Somalia for funding and supporting the terrorist group.
The move made jointly with the Terrorist Financing Targeting Center seeks to prevent the al-Qaeda linked group from gaining access to 'financial networks to secure funding, coordinate attacks, and enable its violent activities,' the US Treasury's Acting Assistant Secretary for Terrorist Financing Anna Morris said in a statement.
