Federal List of Extremist Materials

Federal List of Extremist Materials (Russian: Федеральный список экстремистских материалов) is a list of works that were banned in Russian Federation, primarily based on the Russian Internet Restriction Bill. It is compiled by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation. Producing, storing or distributing the materials on the list is an offense in Russia.[1]

As of April 2nd, 2020, this list included 5018 items.[2] 106 items are already excluded from the list (although their numbers remained in the list).[3]

The list includes publications and websites that criticize Russian authorities, such as the book FSB blows Russia up by Yuri Felshtinsky and Alexander Litvinenko (№ 2791), certain publications by Muslim theologians and Jehovah's Witnesses (№ 2904), certain antisemitic materials, the Navalny video, songs, video files, brochures and websites.[4]

In 2012 scientology books by L. Ron Hubbard were added to the list (№ 1171, 1172, 1173).[5]

There is a separate list of people and organizations suspected of involvement in terrorism or extremism. The list is compiled by Rosfinmonitoring.[6]
