Walkie-talkie communication app Zello has become the latest app banned by Russian officials.

On Sunday, Russia's Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Information Technologies and Mass Communications, also known as Roskomnadzor,announcedthat it is banning Zello for spreading "false information" about the invasion of Ukraine.

"On March 4, Roskomnadzor, based on the decision, sent the administration of the American Internet resource Zello a request to stop sending messages to users that contain false information about the course of a special operation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine," Roskomnadzor said in a translated statement.

"The administration of the Zello Internet resource did not comply with the requirement of Roskomnadzor within the period established by law. Due to the failure of the administration of Zello to comply with the requirements of Roskomnadzor, access to this application on the territory of the Russian Federation will be limited within 24 hours."
