DEPARTMENT OF STATE

[Public Notice: 11498]


Designation of Sidan Ag Hitta and Salem ould Breihmatt as 
Specially Designated Global Terrorists

    Acting under the authority of and in accordance with section 
1(a)(ii)(B) of E.O. 13224, I hereby determine that (a) the person known 
as Sidan Ag Hitta, also known as Asidan Ag Hitta, also known as Abu 
Qarwani, also known as Abu Abdelhakim al-Kidali, also known as Abu `Abd 
al-Hakim and (b) the person known as Salem ould Breihmatt, also known 
as Abu Hamza al-Shanqiti, also known as Abu Hamza al-Shinqiti, also 
known as Hamza al-Mauritani, also known as Hamza Nitrik, also known as 
Cheikh ould Mohamed Saleck ould Abed, are leaders of Jama'at Nusrat al-
Islam wal-Muslimin, a group whose property and interests in property 
are blocked pursuant to a prior determination by the Secretary of State 
pursuant to E.O. 13224.
    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of E.O. 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 
these determinations who might have a constitutional presence in the 
United States, because to do so would render ineffectual the measures 
authorized in the Order.
    This determination shall be published in the Federal Register.
    Authority: E.O. 13224, Section 1(a)(ii).

    Dated: July 28, 2021.
Antony J. Blinken,
Secretary of State.
