It was reported on January 23 that Australia will impose new sanctions on individuals and businesses accused of funding and supporting terrorist organizations in the Middle East.
Among the individuals sanctioned is Khaled Qaddoumi, a Hamas member based in Tehran, who the United States accuses of acting as a liaison between Hamas and the Iranian government.
澳洲还指控总部设在苏丹的私人投资公司LarryCom和西班牙公司Zawaya Group for Development Investment Sociedad Limitada协助中东恐怖分子。
The new sanctions follow those already in place weeks after Hamas launched an Oct. 7 attack on southern Israel that killed 1,200 people.
According to the Pentagon, missiles have been fired at eight Houthi rebel targets in Yemen and attacks on Red Sea transit tankers and merchant ships have been reciprocated.
Since mid-November, the group has carried out more than 30 attacks on the Red Sea Channel and has vowed to continue attacking ships bound for Israel.
In a joint statement issued by the United Kingdom, Australia, Bahrain, Canada and the Netherlands, the allies declared that the military "will not hesitate to defend life" and the free movement of commerce in the region.
