Temporary Ban on Ukrainian OSINT Channels by Telegram

The administration of Telegram has decided to temporarily block at least five Ukrainian OSINT channels.

This information was shared by members of the "NotaEnota" community on Facebook.

"Yesterday and today, Telegram deleted Ukrainian OSINT channels without any explanation. This includes OSINT-bees, OSINT Flow, KRIG war, Cat Eyes OSINT. We also currently cannot access the OSINT Vatra channel," the message states.

The report notes that several Russian OSINT channels were also blocked alongside the Ukrainian ones.

Update:

As of 5:00 PM on June 28, the channels OSINT-bees, OSINT Flow, KRIG war, and Cat Eyes OSINT have been unblocked.

Reminder:

Telegram responded to the investigation by the publication "Important Stories" regarding possible collaboration with Russian intelligence services, stating that no third party has access to their servers.

Earlier, the Russian publication "Important Stories" claimed that the infrastructure of Telegram is maintained by individuals servicing secret complexes of Russian intelligence used for monitoring citizens.
