“We are supporting humanitarian efforts, providing aid for the unfolding refugee crisis, and doing all we can to support our teams in the region.
“We have taken a number of actions in response to the invasion.
“We have paused all product sales in Russia.

“Apple Pay and other services have been limited.
“RT News and Sputnik News are no longer available for download from the App Store outside Russia.
