Nov 13, 2025
Moscow [Russia], November 13: Canada on Wednesday imposed a new round of sanctions against Russia, targeting individuals and entities linked to the energy sector, military capabilities and cyber infrastructure.
Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs Anita Anand announced in a news release that the measures target 13 individuals and 11 entities under the country's Special Economic Measures (Russia) Regulations.
According to the release, the measures focus on degrading Russia's conventional and hybrid military capabilities while also hitting its energy revenues and financial enablers. Among those targeted are several individuals and entities involved in Russia's drone program.
The measures also mark the first time Canada has sanctioned entities that supply cyber infrastructure allegedly used in Russian hybrid strategies against Ukraine, it said.
Additionally, the sanctions list several Russian liquefied natural gas entities, as well as 100 vessels described as part of "Russia's shadow fleet."
The release stated that these actions were taken in broad alignment with recent sanctions announced by the United States, the EU and the UK, and support ongoing efforts by the G7 to exert economic pressure on Russia.
So far, Russia has not commented on the Canadian move.
