You will need to enter series of all subnets allocated to those countries. That wont be easy to do. You will need consider some sort of phpbb mod which will allow you to block signups that come from russian email addresses like mail.ru and similar.

To block a specific country you will need to do it from server side which is not possible incase of shared hosting. VPS Hosting or Dedicated Server customers can do that using iptables or CSF firewall but that wont be possible on shared server
