June 13 (Reuters) - The Russian central bank said trading would begin at 09:50 a.m. (0650 GMT) on the Moscow Exchange on Thursday, almost three hours later than usual, after new U.S. sanctions against the bourse forced a suspension in dollar and euro trading.

The exchange, Russia's leading financial market place, and the central bank rushed out statements on Wednesday - a public holiday in Russia - within an hour of Washington announcing a new round of sanctions aimed at cutting the flow of money and goods to sustain Russia's war in Ukraine.

The latest central bank announcement also said it was suspending trade in Hong Kong dollars. (Reporting by Reuters; Editing by Himani Sarkar)
