The two individuals are Libyans and the companies are based in Turkey, Jordan and Kazakhstan, in the maritime and aviation sectors, the diplomats said.
The European Union has a naval mission to uphold the United Nations Security Council embargo on Libya, in turmoil since the 2011 fall of Muammar Gaddafi.
