Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 9 / Thursday, January 14, 2021 / Notices 3227 

13284 of January 23, 2003, and 

Executive Order 13886 of September 9, 

2019, I hereby determine that the person 

known as Isma’il Fu’ad Rasul Ahmed, 

also known as Abdallah Kurdi, is a 

foreign person who is a leader of alQa’ida Kurdish Battalions, a group 

whose property and interests in 

property are concurrently blocked 

pursuant to a determination by the 

Secretary of State pursuant to Executive 

Order 13224. 

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 6, 2021.

Secretary of State.

Review and Amendment of the 

Designation of ISIL-Sinai Province (and 

Other Aliases) as a Foreign Terrorist 

Organization 

Based upon a review of the 

Administrative Record assembled 

pursuant to Section 219(a)(4)(C) of the 

Immigration and Nationality Act, as 

amended (8 U.S.C. 1189(a)(4)(C)) 

(‘‘INA’’), and in consultation with the 

Attorney General and the Secretary of 

the Treasury, I conclude that the 

circumstances that were the basis for the 

designation of the aforementioned 

organization (and other aliases) as a 

Foreign Terrorist Organization have not 

changed in such a manner as to warrant 

revocation of the designation and that 

the national security of the United 

States does not warrant a revocation of 

the designation. I also conclude that 

there is a sufficient factual basis to find 

that the following are additional aliases 

of the aforementioned organization (and 

other aliases): ISIS-Sinai Province, 

Islamic State of Iraq and ash-Sham— 

Sinai Province, Islamic State of Iraq and 

the Sham—Sinai Province, ISIS–SP, and 

Wilayat Sayna. 

Therefore, I hereby determine that the 

designation of the aforementioned 

organization as a Foreign Terrorist 

Organization, pursuant to Section 219 of 

the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189), shall be 

maintained. Additionally, pursuant to 

Section 219(b) of the INA, as amended 

(8 U.S.C. 1189(b)), I hereby amend the 

designation of the aforementioned 

organization (and other aliases) as a 

Foreign Terrorist Organization to 

include the following new aliases: ISISSinai Province, Islamic State of Iraq and 

ash-Sham—Sinai Province, Islamic State 

of Iraq and the Sham—Sinai Province, 

ISIS–SP, and Wilayat Sayna. 

This determination shall be published 

in the Federal Register.
