Uganda has ordered internet service providers to block all social media platforms and messaging apps until further notice.

This is according to media reports, which cited a letter from Uganda's communications regulator. The Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) reportedly asked all major telecom companies to block access to the iOS AppStore, Google PlayStore and YouTube.
