💨 Abstract

Britain announced new sanctions targeting Russia's military, energy, and financial sectors following a recent drone attack on Ukrainian cities. The sanctions, coordinated with the EU, affect 100 new targets, including supply chains for Russian weapons, disinformation operations, and financial institutions aiding sanctions evasion. UK Foreign Minister David Lammy urged Russia to agree to a ceasefire. Prime Minister Keir Starmer and EU leaders also called for Washington to impose tougher sanctions.
