Tajikistan Blocks Facebook

Tajikistan has blocked access to Facebook, the social media website. The ministry for communications told Tajik internet providers to cut access to Facebook and two other websites used by anti-government opposition groups. "This morning, we carried out the instruction of the communications service and blocked the sites facebook.com, tjknews.com and zvezda.ru," one of Tajikistan’s internet providers told Reuters on condition of anonymity. "We could not refuse to carry out this instruction."
