Chinese drone manufacturer DJI said on Tuesday it will suspend all business activities in Russia and Ukraine as it is reassessing sales compliance efforts in light of a changing landscape amid Ukraine tensions.

“DJI is internally reassessing compliance requirements in various jurisdictions. Pending the current review, DJI will temporarily suspend all business activities in Russia and Ukraine,” the company said in a statement on Tuesday.

DJI said it is engaging with customers, partners and other stakeholders regarding the temporary suspension of business operations in the affected territories.

The Chinese drone manufacturer has been the recent target of online attacks.

In March DJI denied accusations that it was “supporting war,” citing online attacks on the company after some media outlets reported that MediaMarkt, the largest electronics retailer in Germany, had removed DJI drones from its shelves.

DJI said that foreign accusations that the company was supporting war are "completely false" and the removal of its products from the German retailer was done for security reasons.

"We have repeatedly reiterated that all DJI products are designed for civilian use and cannot meet military specifications. Remarks on overseas social media platforms accusing DJI of supporting war are completely false," the company said in a statement in March.
