The United States on Monday imposed sanctions on what it said was a network of five ISIL (ISIS) financial facilitators working across Indonesia, Syria and Turkey in support of members of the armed group in Syria.The US Department of the Treasury in a statement accused those designated of playing a key role in facilitating the travel of ISIL (ISIS) members to Syria and other areas where the group operates, and of conducting financial transfers to support the group’s efforts in Syria-based camps for displaced persons.The Treasury said the network collects funds in Indonesia and Turkey, “some of which were used to pay for smuggling children out of the camps and delivering them to ISIS foreign fighters as potential recruits”.
