The Council today renewed the autonomous restrictive measures against ISIL/Da'esh and Al-Qaeda and persons, groups, undertakings and entities associated with them, prolonging their duration for a further year, until 31 October 2025.
The autonomous list in place currently applies to 15 persons and 6 groups. All those designated are subject to an asset freeze, while the individuals are also under a travel ban to the EU. Additionally, EU persons and entities are forbidden from making funds, financial assets or economic resources available to those listed.
These restrictive measures are complementary to those imposed by the UN Security Council against ISIL/Da'esh and Al-Qaeda.
The EU remains committed to acting against those who threaten international peace and security by planning, financing, and executing terrorist attacks and by spreading terrorist propaganda around the world.

The EU autonomous restrictive measures are complementary to those imposed by the UN Security Council against ISIL(Da'esh) and Al-Qaeda.
