The last Russian TV channels and websites were blocked. Before that, access to the publications of Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Kyrgyzstan was closed, the national portal "Adyrna" wrote with reference to orda.kz.

— All news sites in Russia: InoSMI, RIA Novosti, RBC, TASS, sites of television companies with any news were banned. These were the last foreign news sites to be accessed, and now they are also closed. Access to the site and through mobile applications is prohibited. Azerbaijani sites are not open either. Considering that there was no access to other news before, now all the information flow is blocked. News from Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan was blocked even earlier, reports the correspondent of Radio Azattyk in that country.

In addition, access to the websites of foreign banks, payment systems, downloading music through the AppStore is also blocked. Access to all VPN services is almost completely blocked.

Turkmenistan authorities regularly restrict access to the Internet and prohibit browsing sites through VPNs. Violators of the ban will be summoned for questioning and fined.
