Turkey has barred its citizens’ access to Instagram social media networks resulting to rise in tension across the Middle East.
The national communications authority revealed this without explanation.
The Speculator Index verified the development.
A high-ranking Turkish official accused the US corporation of censorship, prompting this move.
The BTK communications authority announced on its website that “instagram.com has been blocked by a decision on the date of 02/08/2024”.
Fahrettin Altun, the Turkish presidency’s communications director, criticized Instagram on Wednesday, accusing the company of “preventing people from publishing condolence messages for the martyr Haniyeh.”
“This is a very clear and obvious attempt at censure,” Altun said on X.
