EU foreign ministers on Monday agreed to sanctions against entities that violated the UN embargo on arms flowing into Libya, Deutsche Welle reports.

The measures target three companies — from Jordan, Kazakhstan, and Turkey — as well as two individuals for providing planes, ships and other logistics to funnel combat equipment into Libya.

Almost all countries involved in the conflict promised to stop supplying the warring factions with fighters and weapons at a summit in Berlin in January.  However, neither side fully kept to this.
