Turkey has seized the assets of members of the network and added them to the US sanctions list, the Treasury Department said in a statement.
Among those sanctioned are Brukan al-Khatuni, an Iraqi citizen living illegally in Turkey, his two sons, and two businesses they used to transfer money on behalf of the Islamic State between Turkey, Iraq, and Syria, the statement said.
