As the world has punished Russia for Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, the leader is fighting back. We have reported on sanctions being issued by several governments against Russia's recent military actions, as well as companies like Apple, McDonald's, TikTok, and Nike refusing to do business with the country. Residents of both Russia and Ukraine have taken to social media to share what life is like on the ground, but Russia has plans on cutting ties with Instagram.
According to reports, Russia's leaders are upset that Instagram continues to allow the devastation of the Ukraine invasion to be shared. It has been stated that starting next week, Russian citizens will no longer have access to the app.
