Telegram blocks anti-Iran channel for promoting violence

“A Telegram channel is urging people to incite insecurity and use home-made bombs and arms. Isn’t it time to stop promoting violence?” said the minister addressing the Telegram founder Pavel Durov.
The Telegram director, in turn, responded to Azari Jahromi’s tweet.
“Calls for violence are prohibited by the Telegram rules. If confirmed, we’ll have to block such a channel, regardless of its size and political affiliation,” wrote the director on his Twitter page.
