According to PeoplesGazette, Google had earlier banned Russian state-funded media from buying or selling ads through its technology.
It also had invoked its sensitive events policy, which bars marketing that seeks to take advantage of the war, with an exception for protest or anti-war ads.
Russia’s communications regulator, Roskomnadzor on Monday ordered Google to stop showing ads that contained inaccurate information about casualties sustained by Russian forces and Ukrainian civilians.
