Apple temporarily removes Telegram from App Store over child safety policy violations

At the same time, Telegram continues to face legal action in Russia and Australia over its handling of illegal content. Russia is prosecuting Telegram founder Pavel Durov on terrorism-related charges, and Australia's eSafety Commissioner has initiated court proceedings against the platform over allegations of failing to remove terrorism-related content.
