US slaps sanctions on China, Turkey firms to curb Russia war efforts

The United States unveiled sanctions Tuesday on individuals and companies based in China, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and other countries, aiming to disrupt Moscow's military procurement networks amid its war in Ukraine. These include Chinese national Hu Xiaoxun and his China-based private defense company Jarvis HK Co. Companies in Turkey and the UAE were also targeted, alongside other China-based entities such as satellite imagery firms Beijing Yunze Technology Co and Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co. Both were said to have provided high-resolution imagery to private military company Wagner, said the Treasury.
