29.07.2026The Day Durov Was Charged with Terrorism

The day was dominated by the FSB's announcement that Telegram founder Pavel Durov is wanted internationally for complicity in terrorism. State-aligned and commercial outlets uniformly led with the charges, linking them to a Telegram bot used to recruit teenagers for attacks. Independent Meduza and The Moscow Times also covered the story prominently, noting Durov's defiant response.

Overnight, Ukrainian drone strikes on Ryazan and Taganrog caused casualties and damage, but these were quickly overshadowed by the Durov case.

By afternoon, Zelensky's statement that Crimea is not on the peace talks agenda drew attention, alongside Putin's replacement of the Udmurtia governor.

The Durov story persisted throughout the day, reflecting a coordinated editorial focus across the Russian media landscape.
