PRNEWS.IO suspends operations in Russia and cuts business ties with more than 16,000 news sites owned by Russian publishers.
PRNEWS.IO is a global marketplace that allows brands to publish in the media and publishers of news sites to receive remuneration.
The actions taken by the online platform will also affect customers, as the system stops transactions in Russian rubles.
At the same time, PRNEWS.IO cancels the commission for publishers of news sites in Ukraine to support local journalism.
Against the background of war crimes committed by the Russian army in Ukraine, the largest freelance platforms Upwork and Fiverr have also ceased business in Russia.
