The United Kingdom has sanctioned 22 other Russian officials for helping Russia in the war against Ukraine, British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly announced on Wednesday.

In total, London has now sanctioned more than 1,200 people and 120 entities for Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, according to a press release from the UK Foreign Office.

The new sanctions package includes Deputy Prime Minister Denis Valentinovich Manturov who, according to the press release, “is responsible for supervising the Russian arms industry and responsible for equipping the mobilized troops”.

Ten regional governors and leaders were also sanctioned, including the heads of “some of Russia’s poorest ethnic republics”, Dagestan, Ingushetia and Kalmykia, “from which significant numbers of conscripts were drawn”. said the Foreign Office.

Arkady Gostev, director of the Federal Penitentiary Service of the Russian Federation, and Dmitry Bezrukikh, head of the Federal Sanctions Service of the Rostov region, were also sanctioned.

According to the statement, Gostev and Bezrukikh reportedly worked closely with Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Wagner Group, a Russian private military group heavily involved in the fighting in Ukraine.

Ella Pamfilova, chairwoman of the central electoral commission and Andrey Burov, head of the regional electoral commission in Rostov, were also sanctioned. They were both responsible for organizing the “fictitious” referendums in the four temporarily occupied areas of Ukraine, according to the press release.

“We sanctioned individuals who enforced this conscription, sending thousands of Russian citizens to fight in Putin’s illegal and heinous war,” Cleverly said, quoted in the press release.

“The UK will continue to use both sanctions and military aid to support Ukraine in defending its independence,” he added.
