The Australian government has imposed targeted financial sanctions and travel bans on three people involved in the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 in 2014, Foreign Minister Penny Wong said on Saturday.

The sanctions announced on Saturday targeted Sergey Dubinskiy and Leonid Kharchenko, both of whom were convicted by a Dutch court last year.

The third person 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.
