Italian Finance police have seized a superyacht from Russian billionaire Andrey Igorevich Melnichenko, the prime minister's office has confirmed on Saturday,March 12, a few days after the businessman was placed on an European Union sanctions list following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The 470-foot Sailing Yacht A, which has a price tag of 530 million euros , around $578 million USD, has been sequestered at the northern port of Trieste, the government has said.

Designed by Philippe Starck and built by Nobiskrug in Germany, the vessel is the world's biggest sailing yacht, the government has added.

Melnichenko owns major fertiliser producer EuroChem Group and coal company SUEK.

Last week Italian police have seized villas and yachts worth 143 million euros from five high-profile Russians who have been placed on the sanctions list.

The police operations were part of a coordinated drive by Western states to penalise wealthy Russians linked to President Vladimir Putin.
