Russia’s media regulator Roskomnadzor blocked access to at least a dozen media websites on Wednesday, in a crackdown online that sharply escalated after President Vladimir Putin sent in troops to Ukraine.
AFP was unable to access at least a dozen Russian and foreign-based media inside the country. These included award-winning investigation website Bellingcat, a Russian-language Israeli news site and regional websites, like Permdaily.ru. Their websites were listed as blocked by Roskomnadzor.
