Ankara, Turkey - YouTube will be blocked in Turkey again, after a court there ordered the country's telecommunications company to deny access to the site when clips deemed insulting to politicians were discovered, the Associated Press reported.

The site was also blocked in March, in reaction to videos insulting the founder of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk; such insults are illegal in the country.

The ban was lifted after the clips were removed.

A court in the eastern city of Sivas said Wednesday that YouTube was hosting clips that insulted Ataturk, as well as President Abdullah Gul, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and the country's army, and ordered the site blocked again.
