The United States on Friday imposed sanctions on Russian billionaire Viktor Vekselberg, three family members of President Vladimir Putin's spokesperson, and lawmakers in the latest punishment for Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Reuters reported.

Those hit by Friday's sanctions include 10 people on the board of VTB Bank, the second-largest lender in Russia, and 12 members of the State Duma, Russia's lower house of parliament, the U.S. Treasury Department said in a statement.

"Treasury continues to hold Russian officials to account for enabling Putin's unjustified and unprovoked war," Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said.

Putin's spokesperson Dmitry Peskov was targeted on March 3. Friday's measures extend to his wife and two adult children. They lead "luxurious lifestyles that are incongruous with Peskov's civil servant salary," the Treasury said in a news release.

Four Novikombank board members, including chair Elena Georgieva, and ABR Management and four of its board members, including Bank Rossiya chair Dmitri Lebedev and Vice Governor of St. Petersburg Vladimir Knyaginin, were also targeted with sanctions, the US State Department said.

In mid-February, Russia's lower house of parliament voted to ask Putin to recognize the “Donetsk People's Republic” and “Luhansk People's Republic”—two Russian-backed breakaway regions in eastern Ukraine—as independent.

Eleven State Duma members and speaker Vyacheslav Volodin were added to the sanctions list on Friday.
