LONDON, ‌Dec 19 (Reuters) - ‍Britain ‌imposed sanctions on Friday ⁠on ‌individuals and organisations it said were ⁠linked to violence perpetrated against civilians in Syria, ‌including ⁠some who financially supported former president Bashar al-Assad's government.

The government measures were targeted at individuals ‍involved in coastal violence in Syria in March, as well as historic violence committed ⁠during the country's civil war, the statement said.
