The UK government has sanctioned 19 Russian entities, including six banks, six shadow fleet ships, and four companies, under its Russia sanctions regime. The measures target Russia’s war economy, shadow fleet operations, and imports of critical military materials. Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband emphasized the UK’s commitment to supporting Ukraine and countering Kremlin aggression. Chancellor John Healey stated the sanctions aim to cut off funding for Putin’s war and disrupt Russia’s shadow fleet. The UK has sanctioned over 3,400 individuals, entities, and ships since 2022, with today’s actions reinforcing efforts to weaken Russia’s ability to wage war in Ukraine. The package includes designations of specific ships, banks, and companies, as outlined in the UK Sanctions List.
