The YouTube video-hosting platform continues to restrict the spread of Russian propaganda in Ukraine. This time, another 39 channels were blocked. The Centre for Countering Disinformation reports this, UNN writes.
These are playlists by Russian artists who support the war against Ukraine and the Putin regime, as well as channels featuring the propaganda animated series "Masha and the Bear" in various languages
In particular, access has been restricted or the channels of Russian artists and propagandists have been completely deleted, including Oleg Gazmanov, Nikolai Baskov, Lolita, Dima Bilan, Basta, Mikhail Boyarsky, Shaman, Denis Maidanov and others.
We remind you
Russia is spreading AI-generated videos in which the characters from "Masha and the Bear" and "Fixiki" kill caricatured Ukrainians. The CCD called for Russian content to be blocked.
Also, in September, Ukraine blocked 31 YouTube channels belonging to Russian artists, propagandists and sanctioned companies. The decision concerns Filipp Kirkorov, Grigory Leps, Sergey Lazarev, Valeriya, Larisa Dolina, Irina Allegrova and the band "Pelageya," Denis Maidanov, Yulia Chicherina, Anna Netrebko and Vasily Gerello.
