Descrizione:

A number of Russian spies have been sanctioned for conducting a "sustained campaign of malicious cyber activity" including in the UK, the Foreign Office has said.

Three military intelligence units from Russia's GRU espionage agency and 18 officers have had sanctions placed on them for allegedly "spreading chaos and disorder on [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's orders".

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy linked the activity to the UK's continued support of Ukraine, and said GRU spies were "running a campaign to destabilise Europe".

Separately, the European Union placed its "strongest sanctions" yet on Russia, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called "essential and timely".
