The UK government imposed sanctions on three smaller Russian oil producers, as a US-brokered peace deal between Moscow and Kyiv remains elusive.

Tatneft PJSC, Russneft PJSC and NNK PJSC were sanctioned for “obtaining a benefit from or supporting the government of Russia” by operating in the energy segment, the UK Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation said in a statement Thursday.
