New American Sanctions on Syria?

The United States imposed new sanctions related to Syria today, targeting six individuals and two entities. Sanctions were also imposed on Lebanese individuals accused of drug trafficking due to their connection with drug smuggling in Syria. The Treasury Department added Noah Zaiter, who has dozens of arrest warrants issued against him in Lebanon, and Hassan Daqo, who was arrested in Lebanon in 2021 for smuggling captagon to the Gulf region, to the blacklist.
