ISTANBUL, April 12 (Reuters) - The United States imposed sanctions on Wednesday on at least four Turkey-based entities it said violated U.S.
export controls and helped Russia's war effort, in the biggest U.S. enforcement action in Turkey since the invasion of Ukraine last year.
The designations - including on a Turkey-based electronics company and a technology trader alleged to help transfer "dual-use" goods - were part of a global sanctions package on more than 120 entities announced by the U.S.

Treasury.
A U.S. administration official told Reuters the sanctions targeted Turkey-based entities and people in the maritime and haber oku trade sectors that were "primarily" Russia-owned or Russia-linked. (Reporting by Jonathan Spicer; Editing by Daren Butler)
