The new measures also focus on the procurement network supporting Russia's military, especially the supply chain to make drones. Twenty-seven companies were added to the Annex IV list, which means European firms cannot sell dual-use goods to them.
The companies added are mostly Russian and include three mainland Chinese firms and one Hong Kong-based company, the sources said.
The package will be formally approved in time for the second anniversary of the start of Russia's invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24.
