MOSCOW, March 4, 2022 (BSS/AFP) - Russia's media watchdog said Friday it
had restricted access to several independent media websites, including the
BBC, tightening controls over the internet more than one week after Russia
invaded Ukraine.

   Access to websites of the BBC, the independent news website Meduza, German
broadcaster Deutsche Welle, and the Russian-language website of the US-funded
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Svoboda, were "limited" by Roskomnadzor, it
said, following a request from prosecutors.
