Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a decree to implement the decision of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) on sanctions against Russian media.

The sanctions target 68 legal entities and two individuals

Including Russian media companies and organizations from the occupied Crimea. The list includes channels such as NTV Plus, Channel One, Zvezda, TNT Teleset, Petersburg, Ren TV, TRK Crimea, as well as newspapers Izvestia and Moskovsky Komsomolets.

73 out of the 86 legal entities subject to sanctions are registered in the territory controlled by the Ukrainian government

Two of them are located in the occupied Mariupol, and three in the occupied Sevastopol. The rest of the legal entities are based in Russia and China.

Sanctions for a period of three years have been applied to several individuals

Including Vadim Alperin, Oleksandr Yerimitsu, Yuriy Kushnir, Orest Adamcho, Viktor Sherman, and Andriy Popov.

It is worth mentioning that the Osint agency Molfar recently published an analytical report on the countries through which Russia bypasses sanctions. Among them are not only traditional partners of the Russian Federation, but also the United States, Germany, Great Britain, Switzerland, and the Czech Republic.
