Cells of Fire added to US terrorist list

The US State Department on Thursday added the Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire, a group that carried out a series of bloodless bombings in 2008 and 2009, to its list of terrorist organizations.

Washington described the group as trying to spread a ?violent anarchist ideology.?

The inclusion of the group on the list means that any assets it may have in the US can be frozen and Americans are barred from providing it with support.
