The news release does says this is a new sanctions program, and that the tag MAGNIT will be used for all of the folks sanctioned under it. I do note that all the people are from the former USSR.

There’s also a link to the underlying law – you bet Mr. Watchlist will get out a post about this new program soon (probably Monday).

Update: OFAC has added the Magnitsky sanctions program to its sanctions programs page.
