主播大秀

Despite 80 million users in the country, Russia has blocked the social network Instagram. The move came after Instagram's parent company Meta said some users could call for violence against Russian soldiers. Joe Tidy is the 主播大秀's cyber security reporter, and tells us why Instagram has been so popular in Russia. Also in the programme, Russia is supposed to make a regular interest payment on its government bonds later this week. But faced with Western sanctions, authorities have said they may pay in roubles rather than US dollars, which could mean a technical default for the country. Adam Samson is markets news editor at the Financial Times, and explains the implications. Plus, the 主播大秀's Victoria Craig reports on the challenges faced by those seeking to send aid to a war zone, such as Ukraine.
