Russia has placed former UK Defence Minister Ben Wallace on its wanted list, according to Al Jazeera.
Wallace, who left office last year, had recommended assisting Ukraine in carrying out strikes against the bridge linking Russia to annexed Crimea. The bridge, a key supply route for Russian forces, has been a strategic target for Kyiv.
The move represents Moscow's escalation in targeting Western officials involved in supporting Ukraine's war effort.
