According to a report on Tuesday, the British government added John Michael Ormerod, a British citizen, two Russian ship captains, 18 ships and 46 financial institutions to its sanctions list.
This is part of a broader effort by the UK and the European Union to stop Russia from using a so-called shadow fleet to circumvent sanctions against its oil sector.
According to the report, the UK is also working to lower the price cap on Russian oil exports to $60 a barrel.
