EU targets largest ever package of sanctions against individuals and entities supporting Russia’s war industry

The sanctions package of 12 October 2026 is the EU’s response to Russia’s continued aggression against Ukraine. The new listings respond to Russia’s missile and drone strikes against civilian targets in Ukraine, including Kyiv, and its attacks against Ukraine’s critical infrastructure. They also aimed at Russia’s attempts to undermine Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity. The new package specifically targets industry networks, companies and entities in Russia’s military-industrial complex, supplying materiel, technology and other key resources for the Russian armed forces. The agreed listings include 1,569 Russian companies and their CEOs. The objective is to restrict Russia’s access to key military products and components and impede its military industrial production. The EU continues its determined efforts to undermine Russia’s military capabilities and to increase pressure on Russia to end the aggression against Ukraine.
