WikiLeaks: Ecuador admits limiting Assange's internet access
Ecuador has acknowledged it partly restricted internet access for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who is staying at its embassy in London.
In a statement, Ecuador's foreign ministry denied its move was the result of pressure from the US.
WikiLeaks earlier accused the US of asking Ecuador to stop the site publishing documents about presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The US state department said the allegation was "simply untrue".
Transparency activist Julian Assange has sought asylum at London's Ecuadorean embassy since 2012 to avoid extradition over sex assault allegations.
