1. EU Expands Russia Sanctions List by Nearly 1,600
-- The EU formally added almost 1,600 people and entities to its Russia sanctions list Monday, with more than half linked to ballistic-missile production, according to EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas.
-- European banks and suppliers must screen the newly listed parties before processing payments or providing goods; Washington's Russian diesel license does not override EU sanctions.
2. Pakistan Detains Hundreds of Opposition Politicians After Provincial Takeover
-- Hundreds of politicians from Imran Khan's PTI party have been detained after President Asif Ali Zardari suspended its government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and declared emergency rule Sunday, the Guardian reported.
-- The detentions restrict PTI's ability to contest the federal takeover while security decisions in the province are removed from its elected government.
3. Norway Fines Microsoft's Xandr $9.6 Million Over Grindr Data Sharing
-- Norway fined Microsoft's advertising subsidiary Xandr $9.6 million over data sharing involving Grindr, Channel News Asia reported.
-- The penalty puts an advertising intermediary, not just the app supplying user data, within the reach of privacy enforcement.
