WASHINGTON, June 24, 2026 — The US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control said it had made Russia-related removals from its Specially Designated Nationals List, deleting 11 entries tied to Executive Order 14024. The action was posted on June 24 under OFAC’s recent actions page as a sanctions list update.
The removals include several Russian individuals, among them German Belous, Mikhail Klyukin, Irina Kremleva, Viktor Nikolaev, Nadia Cherkasova, Ivan Potanin and Maxim Smirnov. OFAC also removed the cargo vessels Vyacheslav Arshinov and Gennady Egorov, as well as two Turkey-based companies, Ida Asansor Sanayii Ve Ticaret Limited Sirketi and Dein Danismanlik Pazarlama Ve Ticaret Anonim Sirketi. Some names appear in multiple transliterations on the list, but the update states these deletions were made from the SDN List.
