EU foreign ministers approved a 22nd sanctions package, the bloc's largest expansion yet, adding roughly 1,600 Russian defense firms and individuals tied to missile, drone and ammunition production, and also sanctioned 77 people over Russia's State Duma 'elections' held in occupied Ukrainian territory. In parallel, Zelensky signed three sanctions packages targeting producers of Russian ballistic missiles and entities evading financial sanctions, and Ukraine's foreign minister said Kyiv would push for further measures and use of frozen Russian assets at the EU Foreign Affairs Council.
