President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has sanctioned 37 Russian groups and 108 people including a former prime minister and a former education minister and said he aimed to fight wartime abductions of children from Ukraine and other "Russian terror."
"We are increasing the pressure of our state onto them and each of them must be held responsible for what they have done," he said Saturday in his nightly video address after his office issued corresponding decrees with his signature.
