The Ukrainian Commission for Regulation of Gambling and Lotteries (KRAIL) has ordered to block 11 more online casino sites for operating without a license.
It told hosting providers to block the sites using domain name system (DNS) servers within three days of the order.
The sites affected include 888starz.bet, Astekbet.com, Bettwo.fun, Casino-joker-20.com, Clubsvulkanbets.store, Chipstars.bet, Cosmobet.one, F1casino.club, Roobet.com, Stake.ceo and Vulkan-777.biz. The regulator named Cloudflare Inc and Melbikomas UAB as hosting the Cosmobet and Astekbet sites.
Meanwhile, KRAIL has reported that the number of people signed up to the national gambling self-exclusion register rose by 139 per cent in the first half of 2024. As reported in a meeting last week, registrations were up by 4,585 from the end of 2023 to 7,874 people. Of the new sign-ups, 87 per cent were men and 41 people were added to the register following applications registered by relatives.
