Treasury revoked Syria General License 25, issued Iran General Licenses AA (certain activities involving La Nivernaise De Raffinage SAS) and BB (wind-down authorization for previously authorized ITSR transactions), and suspended Iran General Licenses F (sports activities) and G (academic exchanges and educational services).
