The BBC said on Sunday that its World News television channel has been taken off the air in Russia as Moscow clamps down further on foreign media during its attacks on Ukraine.
BBC World News presenter Victoria Derbyshire first announced the suspension to viewers outside Russia on Sunday.
“BBC World News, the channel you are watching if you are outside the UK right now, and which is the BBC’s global television news channel, has just been taken off air in Russia,” she said.
A BBC spokesperson said that BBC World News had not been available in Russia since Saturday.
“We regret that our Russian audiences are being denied access to trusted and impartial news at a time when they need it most,” the spokesperson said
