SYDNEY: Australia has imposed financial sanctions and travel bans on three men involved in the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 over Ukraine in 2014, Foreign Minister Penny Wong said on Saturday .
In November, a Dutch court convicted two former Russian intelligence agents and a Ukrainian separatist leader in absentia of murder for their role in the incident and handed them life sentences. The third man targeted was Sergey Muchkaev, a colonel with the Russian Armed Forces who commanded the brigade that supplied the missile system responsible for downing the plane, Wong said.
"These sanctions demonstrate the Australian Government’s ongoing commitment to hold to account those responsible for the downing of Flight MH17," Wong said in a statement.
