Pushilin,” the message says.

As noted, such actions of the YouTube administration violate the key principles of the free distribution of information and unhindered access to it.

On February 4, the YouTube administration blocked the channels of the Ministry of Information and the People's Militia Department of the DPR.

The video hosting also removed the channel of the Luhansk Information Center without explanation.
