The U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has imposed sanctions on three far-left international networks as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to combat politically motivated violence. The designated groups are Autistici Inventati, an Italy-based nonprofit; Palestine Action, a U.K.-based organization labeled a terrorist group; and Masar Badil, a Spain-based entity alleged to operate as a front for the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, which was previously sanctioned by the United States. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that the administration will utilize its economic tools to target far-left extremists, their fronts, and enablers, emphasizing that political terrorism has no place in society and that the U.S. will continue to disrupt the financial lifelines of these groups.

The sanctions prohibit the designated groups from accessing any property or interests in the U.S. or controlled by U.S. citizens, freeze any U.S.-based bank accounts, and prevent American individuals or entities from conducting financial transactions with the groups. The move follows a year of Treasury Department investigations into far-left nonprofits and activists, including figures like Hasan Piker, Medea Benjamin, and Jodie Evans, for alleged violations of U.S. sanctions against Cuba. The State Department has also contributed to the coordinated interagency efforts, issuing a report that Autistici Inventati provided services to overseas terrorist groups and violent far-left agitators, causing chaos in American cities. Additionally, the Treasury Department sanctioned two officials associated with Masar Badil, which is linked to the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, an international fundraiser for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization.
