EU Imposes Sanctions on Nearly 1,600 People Linked to Russia's Military Industry

EU foreign ministers approved a new sanctions package on Monday targeting nearly 1,600 individuals connected to Russia's military-industrial complex. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas announced the decision, noting that more than half of those listed are involved in the production of ballistic missiles. The move represents one of the broadest expansions of EU restrictive measures since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
