Canada Escalates Measures Against Russian Drone and Cyber Threats with New Sanctions

On Wednesday, Canada revealed new sanctions aimed at Russia’s drone and energy sectors, as well as the infrastructure believed to facilitate cyberattacks against Ukraine.

These actions were announced by Foreign Minister Anita Anand during a meeting of G7 foreign ministers held near Niagara Falls, Ontario. They also encompass vessels associated with Russia’s so-called shadow fleet, which are reportedly involved in transporting oil in breach of international sanctions.

“Canada remains committed to ensuring that Russia faces consequences for its actions,” Anand stated at a press conference alongside Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha.

Anand highlighted that this is the first instance of Canada targeting “IT infrastructure utilized in Russia’s hybrid tactics against Ukraine.” The sanctions also affect companies connected to Russia’s liquefied natural gas industry, according to a release from Global Affairs Canada.

These measures are part of what the Canadian government refers to as “ongoing efforts by the G7 to intensify economic pressure on Russia to bring an end to its war.”
