The two sanctioned persons are Yuliya Vladimirovna Pankratova and Denis Olegovich Degtyarenko, both key members of the Russia-aligned hacktivist group Cyber Army of Russia Reborn (CARR), according to a US Treasury press release.

Since 2022, CARR, which also uses the name Cyber Army of Russia, has conducted low-impact, unsophisticated DDoS attacks in Ukraine and against governments and companies located in countries that have supported Ukraine. In late 2023, CARR started to claim attacks on the industrial control systems of multiple U.S. and European critical infrastructure targets. Using various unsophisticated techniques, CARR has been responsible for manipulating industrial control system equipment at water supply, hydroelectric, wastewater, and energy facilities in the U.S. and Europe.
