26 May 2026 Sabre Global Technologies LimitedSabre subsidiary accepted payments from designated Ural Airlines United KingdomBreaches of sanctions and embargoes €1.16m

The provider of a travel booking system continued to provide services to Ural Airlines, designated in May 2022, requested payments of around 906,600 USD and, after the funds were frozen by the bank, looked for alternative payment routes, which HM Treasury's Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI) regarded as circumvention. A lack of escalation during a change of roles, vacant leadership positions in legal and compliance, policies focused on US law and screening that did not flag the designation all contributed.

What organisations can take from it

If an existing customer is designated, escalate this immediately; looking for alternative payment routes after the bank has frozen funds is itself a breach.

Relevance to training and awareness

Responding to new designations of existing customers, prohibition of circumvention
