Manx airspace and Island ports are closed to all Russian aircraft and ships until further notice.
That's according to Chief Minister Alf Cannan - who spoke in the House of Keys this morning - amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Currently, applications for Ukranians wanting to come to Manx shores can be made through the UK visa and immigration services.
The UK has announced Visa rules will be relaxed to allow people to bring over Ukrainian immediate family members who are fleeing - The Chief Minister has announced the Isle of Man will follow suit.
As a result, Government has set up a dedicated email address UkraineGuidance@gov.im. for those who need urgent support and guidance.
The Council of Ministers has also agreed to make a financial contribution of £500,000 to an upcoming appeal by the Disasters Emergency Committee.
