  • Imposes visa restrictions
  • Imposes financial sanctions on Al-Qahtani and Hassan Mohammed Al Asiri

Asiri is a general and advisor to Khashoggi.

Update: The total number of individuals to be sanction is 76. The intel report also says US officials believe Saudi crown prince approved operation to 'capture or kill' journalist.
