Ukraine-Russia tension: Japan and Australia ratchet up sanctions

Countries across Asia have intensified sanctions against Russia in response to its full-scale assault on Ukraine.

Australia's PM Scott Morrison said on Friday they would widen sanctions against Russia, targeting several of its elite citizens and lawmakers.

Japan Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said they would shore up sanctions against Russia in three areas, including military equipment exports.

Japan will also freeze the assets of several Russian banks, Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki said.
