The United States has announced more than 500 new sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine and the death in custody of the opposition figure Alexei Navalny.
The sanctions will target individuals connected to Navalny’s imprisonment and Russia’s war machine, President Joe Biden said.
Export restrictions will be imposed on nearly 100 firms or individuals.
It is unclear what impact the sanctions will have on Russia’s economy.
