Roskomnadzor, the Russian communications regulator, stated it wanted Wikipedia to remove “material with inaccurate information of public interest” about the “special operation” in Ukraine and the actions of Russia’s troops. The Russian law provides that if the owner of an Internet page does not delete illegal information when asked to do so, it can receive a fine of up to 4 million roubles ($48,120.30).
