Zelensky Strikes at Russia's Military-Industrial Complex with New Sanctions
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed Presidential Decree No. 704/2026, implementing new targeted sanctions against Russia's military-industrial complex.
The decree targets 23 companies and 20 individuals involved in supplying critical components to Russian weapons systems, including microelectronics, optical devices, and industrial equipment.
Among the named targets are Belarusian firm Kidma Tech and Russia's Morozov Plant, which operates under the Rostec umbrella. Morozov is known for producing solid-fuel charges used in Iskander missiles.
The sanctions sit within a larger framework that increasingly treats digital assets as a front line in financial warfare. In February 2026, Ukraine's sanctions regime directly targeted Russian crypto networks, miners, and exchanges that were identified as financing pipelines for the military-industrial base.
