[Public Notice:10995]


Designation of Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq as a Specially Designated Global 
Terrorist

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 
1(a)(ii)(A) of Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001, as amended 
by Executive Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, Executive Order 13284 of 
January 23, 2003, and Executive Order 13886 of September 9, 2019, I 
hereby determine that the person known as Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq, also known 
as AAH, also known as Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq min Al-Iraq, also known as 
Asaib al Haq, also known as Asa'ib Ahl Al-Haqq, also known as League of 
the Righteous, also known as Khazali Network, also known as Khazali 
Special Group, also known as Qazali Network, also known as The People 
of the Cave, also known as Khazali Special Groups Network, also known 
as Al-Tayar al-Risali, also known as The Missionary Current, is a 
foreign person who has committed or has attempted to commit, or poses a 
significant risk of committing, or has participated in training to 
commit, 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: January 2, 2020.
Michael R. Pompeo,
Secretary of State.
