Folks,

What I heard this evening on the Dutch National Public Broadcasters 8 'O clock news is that the last Russian Independent Broadcasters Echo of Moscow and Dozhd TV are off the Air.



On Tuesday, March 1, the Russian prosecutor general’s office ordered Roskomnadzor to take independent broadcasters Echo of Moscow and Dozhd TV off the air and block access to their websites, according to news reports and reports by both outlets. The outlets’ websites were inaccessible in Russia shortly after that order was announced, those reports said.
