The notice says the EU Council plans to keep terrorism-related restrictive measures in place against several listed groups, including Babbar Khalsa, the Communist Party of the Philippines/New People’s Army, the IRGC, ELN, DHKP/C, and The Base. The Council also plans to update the reasons used to support those listings. The listed groups may ask the Council for the proposed updated reasons before 13 May 2026. For businesses, banks, charities, logistics firms, and compliance teams, the practical point is that EU terrorism sanctions screening should continue to treat these groups as listed targets unless and until the EU changes the list.
