The United States is preparing to issue sanctions on individuals and entities it considers responsible for perpetrating civil unrest in Sudan.

The order will expand the U.S. sanctions already in place against individuals and entities in Sudan through executive orders issued in 1997 and 2006, although some sanctions were subsequently rolled back.
