On May 23, 2026, President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a decree putting into effect the decision of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine on the application of sanctions against russian occupiers involved in missile attacks on Ukraine.

The list includes 127 commanders of long-range aviation units of the russian Aerospace Forces, who used more than 4,100 air-launched cruise missiles — Kh-101, Kh-55, Kh-555, Kh-22, Kh-32 — and Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles, as well as commanders of missile and artillery units of the russian Armed Forces. They carried out more than 1,100 attacks using Iskander-K ground-launched cruise missiles and Iskander-M ballistic missiles.

They are responsible for a number of high-profile strikes:

• the strike on the Okhmatdyt children's hospital in Kyiv on July 8, 2024;
• the strike on a high-rise building in Ternopil on November 19, 2025 (38 dead);
• the bombing of Mariupol in March 2022;
• the strike on a cafe-shop in the village of Groza on October 5, 2023 (59 dead);
• the strike on the center of Sumy on April 13, 2025 (35 killed);
• the strike on the center of Chernihiv on April 17, 2024 (18 dead).

“Today, we signed our new Ukrainian sanctions package, which we must definitely extend to other jurisdictions. Sanctions against the occupiers — the russian military, more than a hundred of them — who are involved in missile and drone strikes on our country, on our people. There is also a package against ships used by russia to transport war cargo — weapons, ammunition, and equipment. We are preparing our new sanctions solutions — both long-range and legal,” President Volodymyr Zelenskyy commented on the sanctions.
