Mobile applications of Russian banks Levoberezhny, Primorye, Metallinvestbank, St. Petersburg, SDM Bank, Uralsib, MTS Bank, Moscow Credit Bank (MKB), UBRIR, Zenit and Lanta Bank are missing from the Google Play app store.

Recall that on February 24, the U.S. Justice Department added all of these credit institutions to the SDN-list. As a result, the restrictions block all assets of banks in the United States, prohibit transactions with dollars, and companies cooperating with banks risk in turn to be under secondary sanctions.

Recall that earlier, after VTB app was removed from the AppStore twice, the last time the bank added a service in the form of a restaurant guide, but after a short time and it disappeared.
