Black Africa Also Known as JAMBS Also Known as Jama'atu Ansaril 
Muslimina Fi Biladis Sudan as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist 
Pursuant to Section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224, as Amended

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 1(b) 
of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended by Executive 
Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive Order 13284 of January 23, 
2003, I hereby determine that the entity known as Jama'atu Ansarul 
Muslimina Fi Biladis-Sudan, also known as Ansaru, also known as Ansarul 
Muslimina Fi Biladis Sudan, also known as Vanguards for the Protection 
of Muslims in Black Africa, also known as JAMBS, also known as Jama'atu 
Ansaril Muslimina Fi Biladis Sudan, committed, or poses a significant 
risk of committing, acts of terrorism that threaten the security of 
U.S. nationals or the national security, foreign policy, or economy of 
the United States.
    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of Executive Order 
13224 that ``prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the 
Order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States 
would render ineffectual the blocking and other measures authorized in 
the Order because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously,'' I 
determine that no prior notice needs to be provided to any person 
subject to this determination who might have a constitutional presence 
in the United States, because to do so would render ineffectual the 
measures authorized in the Order.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register.

    Dated: November 5, 2013.
John F. Kerry,
Secretary of State.
