The council, sitting on Monday, noted that energy resources controlled by militant groups could provide a rich source of income and improve their "capacity to attack.”
A statement highlighted that any trade with these groups, such as ISIL and al-Nusra Front, would be “inconsistent with the council’s resolutions” and that all UN member states are “required to ensure that their nationals and any persons within their territory do not trade in oil with these entities.”
The council “strongly condemns any engagement in direct or indirect trade of oil” from Syria and Iraq involving terrorist groups, the statement added.
