The UOJ editorial team has learned that our website, as well as the website Dialog.tut, has been blocked again by order of the State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection.

In the order, it is stated that the websites will remain blocked until the expiration of martial law.

The SBU provided no reasons for the blockage in its order, citing only the Presidential Decree on the imposition of martial law and its provisions on electronic communications. The document specifies that Ukrainian internet providers must report on the implementation of this order.

Previously, the UOJ analyzed the expert reports that served as the basis for a criminal case against employees of the Union of Orthodox Journalists.
