These sanctions apply to persons or entities operating within those sectors and often restrict specific types of transactions (e.g., certain financing or technology transfers).

Comprehensive sanctions cover entire jurisdictions. Individual or corporate sanctions apply to specific persons or companies but are not sector-based.
