Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has introduced new sanctions against a number of the country's political figures. He also deprived pro-Russian politicians Yury Boyko and Nestor Shufrych of their state awards.
Yury Boyko, previously awarded the title of "Hero of Ukraine", has lost this highest state honour. Nestor Shufrych was stripped of the Order "For Merit" of the 2nd and 3rd degrees.
These measures are part of broader actions to review the list of state honorees in the context of combating pro-Russian influence in the country.
