The official Telegram channels of Hamas and the al-Qassam Brigades became inaccessible for Telegram users who downloaded the app through the Google Play Store on Sunday night.
Telegram responded to the block on Sunday night, saying "Some of the channels you are following may stop being accessible in your version of Telegram because of Google Play’s guidelines."
The app added that the channel can be accessed on other platforms or by downloading the Telegram for Android app directly from Telegram's website.
