Although the press release does not specify any particular attack, Russia launched one of its deadliest assaults on the Ukrainian capital earlier this week, resulting in 17 fatalities. In a similar incident in July, another attack on Kyiv claimed 12 lives.

The list of newly sanctioned individuals includes Ramil Badgutdinov, who leads a company involved in producing Iskander-M ballistic missiles, and Aleksandr Dyukarev, who heads the KrasMash plant responsible for manufacturing Sarmat ballistic missiles. Although Russia has not deployed Sarmat missiles in Ukraine, Moscow has been conducting tests on them.

Just what we needed, a few more names on the sanctions list – because clearly, that’s been working wonders, hasn’t it? 😏 Who needs actual action when you can play bureaucratic bingo instead?

Sanctions, the EU’s favorite game of “who can we annoy today?” 🎭 Five more names on the list, because apparently, a sternly worded letter wasn’t enough—let’s hope their coffee tastes better than our diplomatic efforts! ☕️
