Bloomberg: UN Targets Islamic State Revenue From Oil, Artifacts, Ransom
The United Nations Security Council adopted a binding resolution threatening economic and diplomatic sanctions against countries and individuals that help Islamic State and other terrorist groups profit from trading oil, antiquities or hostages.
The resolution requires governments to ensure that they aren’t engaged in direct or indirect trade with Islamic State and al-Qaeda-affiliated groups such as the al-Nusra Front in Syria. It was adopted on Thursday with support from all 15 Security Council members.
