EU preparing sanctions against Russians abducting Ukrainian children – media
That's according to EUobserver, Ukrinform reports.
The sanctions list will include 62 individuals against whom the EU intends to introduce restrictions.
Among them are military personnel, local piticians, pragandists, etc.
The blacklist names three Russian piticians — Lenara Ivanova, Vyacheslav Dukhin, and Tatiana Moskalkova — to face a visa-ban and asset-freeze for helping to organize mass abductions of Ukrainian children from temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories.

The blacklist is accompanied by "evidence packages" designed to stand up to a legal challenge in the Eurean Court of Justice, making those named more likely to end up in any post-war tribunals.
It comes on t of 1,412 Russians already listed by the EU.
On February 17, the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights, Dmytro Lubinets, said about 150,000 Ukrainian children illegally abducted from Ukraine could stay in Russia.
