New York March 4 2022: Computer chip manufacturer Intel will stop all shipments to customers in Russia and Belarus.
“Intel condemns the invasion of Ukraine by Russia," the company said in a news release on Thursday.
Intel added that it is working with employees who have ties to the region and have launched a fundraising campaign that has already raised $1.2m (£900,000) for Ukrainians in need.
"We will continue to stand with the people of Ukraine and the global community in calling for an immediate end to this war and a swift return to peace,” the California-based company added.
It follows similar moves by other global computer chip manufacturers.
Russia does not produce large quantities of electronics, in part due to a lack of highest-end semiconductors needed for advanced computing.
