Billionaire oil tycoon and Russian foreign minister’s stepdaughter included in list of 65 new sanctions
Russia has been hit with 65 new sanctions by the UK, in a move the Foreign Office said was designed to target “key strategic industries and individuals” as the war in Ukraine entered its second month.
Among those hit were six banks and a defence company that produces drones, as well as the Wagner Group, which Britain said had reportedly been been tasked with assassinating the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
