RIPE Atlas probes can mostly connect with TLS:

% blaeu-cert -r 200 -4 rt.com
198 probes reported
[FAILED TO GET A CERT: timeout reading hello] : 1 occurrences 
[FAILED TO GET A CERT: connect: timeout] : 20 occurrences 
[/C=RU/L=Moscow/O=ANO TV-Novosti/CN=*.rt.com] : 177 occurrences

Among those who cannot, we can guess they are on networks which block
russian IP addresses such as 185.178.208.0/24 (or russian AS).

No sign of DNS blocking anywhere.
