Australia has imposed sanctions on seven Russians whom Canberra considers involved in the poisoning of opposition leader Alexei Navalny (included in the register of terrorists and extremists of Rosfinmonitoring), Foreign Minister Penny Wong said in a statement.
The restrictions are related to “violation of human rights,” the statement said.
In addition, they were introduced against the Iranian morality police and the Basij resistance forces, a volunteer militia that is part of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran. Six citizens of the country fell under them, who, according to Canberra, “participated in suppression of protests after the death of student Mahsa Amini. According to Wong, they are involved in the “oppression of the people of Iran.”
Australia also introduced restrictive measures against three Iranians and one legal entity suspected of supplying drones to Russia. Moscow denies the shipments, Tehran did the same at first, but in early November, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said his country had given drones to Russia before the start of a special operation in Ukraine.
