Twitter and YouTube blocked in Turkey after court decision, source says
None
Access to Twitter and YouTube were blocked in Turkey on Monday following a court decision based on complaints from individuals, a source in Turkey's telecoms industry said.
Turkey temporarily blocked Twitter and YouTube in the run-up to local elections in March 2014, after audio recordings purportedly showing corruption in then-Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan's inner circle were leaked on their sites. That decision caused a public uproar and drew heavy international criticism.
Turkey's telecoms regulator could not immediately be reached for comment and there was no statement on its website.
