In addition, SMS messaging will not be functional. The reason for the restrictions is to "ensure the security of the holiday events on May 9."
At the same time, home internet and Wi-Fi will operate without restrictions, the Russian Ministry of Digital Development assured.
Additionally
On May 7-8, no shutdown of mobile internet or communication is planned in the Russian capital, the agency added. However, "operational restrictions are possible in the event of direct security threats," the Russian ministry noted.
As a reminder
At least 15 Russian regions have cancelled parades on the occasion of May 9.
UNN also reported that the Russian government approved a large-scale plan to "combat the destructive behavior of youth" until 2030.
