Russia’s Attacks Disrupt Internet Services to 100,000 Households in Kyiv, Ukrainian Ministry Says
Crews are repairing damaged network infrastructure after strikes hit data centers and a traffic exchange point, officials said, as service disruptions spread beyond the capital.
- On Wednesday, Russian drone attacks disrupted internet services for around 100,000 households across Kyiv and the surrounding region, Ukraine's Ministry of Digital Transformation confirmed.
- The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed its recent strikes against Kyiv-based internet service providers were aimed at "striking facilities supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine," according to political analyst Andrii Smolii.
- At least three Kyiv-based internet service providers—Pavutyna, UTELS, and Crazy Network—reported service disruptions after data center damage extended connectivity issues to Vinnytsia and the Khmelnytskyi region.
- Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha condemned the attacks, writing that "Russia has targeted major Ukrainian data centers, seeking to disrupt the flow of information" and endanger life-saving missile alerts.
- These strikes followed a Tuesday attack when Russian forces deployed jet-powered Shahed drones against fuel tanks in Kyiv's Obolonskyi district, an incident Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said injured eight people.
