The Guardian reports:

US announces more than 500 sanctions against Russia

“Washington (announced on Friday, 23 Feb, that it) would issue more than 500 new sanctions targeting Russia as the US seeks to increase pressure on Moscow to mark the second anniversary of its war in Ukraine.

The measures, Biden has said, seek to hold Russia to account over the war and the death of opposition leader, Alexei Navalny. Friday’s measures will target individuals connected to Navalny’s imprisonment as well as Russia’s financial sector, defence industrial base, procurement networks and sanctions evaders across multiple continents.”

Reportedly, they are also designed to further reduce energy revenues to Russia

Like the previous ones they will have little effect, as even North Korean has access to Western and USA made components for its missiles. Which are sent to Russia.
