On Monday, September 16, the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (OFAC) added new defendants to the sanctions list (SDN). Two of them have Cypriot citizenship. According to the Cyprus News Agency, we are talking about Artemis Artemia and Panayote Karaoli.

OFAC has imposed sanctions against five individuals and one legal entity associated with the Intellexa consortium “for their role in the development, operation and distribution of commercial spyware technology that poses a significant threat to U.S. national security.”
