Yes, Russian users are currently unable to upgrade Windows 10 to Windows 11 via Windows Update — instead, the system redirects them to the official Microsoft site, where when they try to download the update, a blank page opens.

This is not the first time Russians have had such problems with Windows this year — at the beginning of summer, they lost the ability to download an ISO image of the system from the official website.
