Russia has blocked access to Facebook and Twitter.

This comes as President Vladimir Putin signed into law a bill that could put journalists in prison for 15 years if they are convicted of spreading false information about the military. It has led the BBC and many other foreign broadcasters to announce they are stopping reporting from Russia. Most independent media organisations have been shut down. Al Jazeera's @Dorsa Jabbari reports from Moscow, Russia.
