Amidst reports linking the messaging app Telegram to the recruitment of gunmen involved in a recent attack near Moscow, the Kremlin has issued a warning to the app's owner, Pavel Durov, urging him to exercise caution.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian court on Friday ordered that access to the Telegram messenger service be blocked in Russia, heralding possible communication disruption for millions of users in the latest clash between global technology firms and Russian authorities.

The Russian Federal Security Service compiled a protocol against Telegram because of the refusal of the messenger to give access to user messages. This writes in its electronic edition, "Dojd" television, quoting a message from the founder of Telegram.
