The United States on Wednesday added the Group to Support Islam and Muslims (GSIM), a fusion of three Malian jihadist groups allied to Al-Qaeda, to its list of "foreign terrorist organizations." The move is aimed at denying GSIM the "resources to plan and carry out terrorist attacks," the State Department said in a statement.
It said any property owned by GSIM in the United States would be blocked and that US citizens are prohibited from dealing with the group.
The State Department said GSIM has described itself as Al-Qaeda's official branch in Mali.
It added the group has claimed responsibility for a series of attacks since it was formed in March 2017, including those on March 2 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
