More than 400 employees will be affected, the report said, citing a company spokesperson. Several major companies, including Apple Inc, Nike, and Dell Technologies, have severed connections with Russia.

Facebook-owner Meta Platforms Inc and Alphabet Inc's Google have also taken measures to restrict Russian state media from making money off ads on their platforms.
