According to RIA Novosti, access to the main Internet search engine Google, the YouTube platform, and the Viber messaging were all blocked in the Kherson region under the control of Russian forces.
According to Kirill Stremousov, deputy head of the region’s administration, “the cause is the exploitation of these social networks as elements of information terrorism by the Ukrainian authorities and their American curators, as hostile information dumps.”
Vladimir Rogov, a member of the main council of the administration of the Zaporozhye area, told RIA Novosti that “the work of the American search engine Google has been slowed down, and if the campaign of deception continues, it will be blocked.”
The “LNR” and “DNR” have already reported on Google’s blocking.
