A series of legal actions in the United States has led to significant prison sentences for individuals involved in international crimes, including terrorism funding and sanctions violations. In New York, Victoria Jacobs (aka Bakhrom Talipov) was sentenced to 18 years for laundering $12,000 in Bitcoin to fund the terrorist group HTS in Syria. Meanwhile, a Sacramento-based Russian national received a 12-year sentence for financially supporting HTS. Additionally, another individual in New York pleaded guilty to attempting to export drone parts to Russia despite sanctions, involving transactions totaling more than $250,000, highlighting ongoing efforts to circumvent U.S. export controls.
