Russia's foreign ministry on Friday said it banned entry to 500 Americans, including former president Barack Obama. The moves come as a counter-attack to sanctions imposed by Washington. In a statement, the ministry also said Russia had refused the latest US request for consular access to detained reporter Evan Gershkovich, who faces spying charges.
