The individuals are on Kenya's Domestic Terrorism Sanctions List, following a decision by the Counter-Financing of Terrorism Inter-Ministerial Committee.
The FRC has directed banks and financial institutions to immediately freeze assets, property, or funds owned or controlled by the designated individuals. This includes accounts held jointly or solely, as well as proceeds derived from these funds.
According to the authorities, the suspects are in police radar.
The move aims to disrupt terrorism financing networks and protect Kenya's financial system.
The 13 individuals include 10 Kenyans and three citizens from neighboring countries. Some are suspected of facilitating transactions for Al-Shabaab and Islamic State affiliates.
The FRC warns that non-compliance or attempts to circumvent sanctions will attract severe penalties.
