Turkey blocks YouTube access

    
Turkey has blocked access to YouTube, a day after a court ordered the suspension of a ban on Twitter which the prime minister supported.

The national telecoms authority said it had taken an ‘administrative’ measure against the site in Turkey, Reuters news agency reports.

Earlier, what appeared to be a leaked audio recording of Turkish officials discussing Syria appeared on YouTube.

The Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, accuses social media of spreading misinformation.
