Norway will further restrict access for Russian tourists due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, blocking almost all entry, the Nordic country's Justice Ministry said on Thursday.

Russian citizens whose purpose is tourism and other non-essential travel will be rejected upon entry across the external border. Exceptions may be granted in cases such as visits to close family residing in Norway, the ministry said.

The new policy takes effect on May 29.
