“The Telegram Messenger Administration will consider the possibility of restricting the operation of telegram channels in Russia and Ukraine at the time of hostilities.” This was stated by the founder of the Telegram platform Pavel Durov.
According to his words, telegrams-channels are increasingly becoming a source of unverified information related to war, and the administration of the messenger does not have the ability to check all publications to accuracy.
Durov also called on users from Russia and Ukraine with a doubt “to any data that applies to Telegram at this time.”
