A group of journalists, experts, and leaders of pro-Ukrainian NGOs has been placed on Moscows entry-ban list

Moscow has added five British nationals to its blacklist over London's hostile actions, spread of disinformation, and the concentrated effort "to pump up the Kiev regime with weaponry," the Russian Foreign Ministry has said.

The ministry announced the move on Tuesday, urging London "to renounce aggressive anti-Russian steps, as well as its support for the [Vladimir] Zelensky regime." The UK's effort to prolong the Ukraine conflict no matter what leads only to "further civilian casualties" and ultimately the "destruction of Ukrainian statehood," it said.

The latest addition to Russia's no-entry list includes journalists and experts involved in "disseminating slanderous fabrications and false information." It also features two heads of "British security companies" that recruit personnel to prop up the Kiev regime under the guise of "implementing pseudo-humanitarian projects in Ukraine," the ministry stated.
