Russia blocks Facebook, accuses it of restricting access to Russian media
Russia's communications regulator said on Friday it had blocked Meta Platforms' Facebook website in response to what it said were restrictions on access to Russian media on its platform.
The authority added that there have been 26 cases of Facebook discrimination against Russian media since October 2020, with access restricted to state-backed channels such as Russia Today and the Russian Information Agency.
Facebook was not immediately available for comment.
