Strikes by the Russian Armed Forces paralyzed the Internet in Ukraine

The day before, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced an attack by the Russian Armed Forces on Kyiv. According to the department, in the Ukrainian capital the Datagroup data center, which provided processing and transmission of intelligence information in the interests of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), came under attack. The Russian military also managed to hit the Kosmonov data processing center (DPC) in Kyiv. This center ensured the operation of mobile Internet in the Ukrainian capital, and also supported Starlink satellite communication systems, which are used in the interests of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Due to attacks on data centers in Kyiv, the work of some Ukrainian TV channels was disrupted. Local media reported this. In particular, the Ukrainian TV channel “Novini LIVE” temporarily stopped working due to problems with the signal. According to INSIDER UA, over the past two days the sites and data centers of at least 11 providers were damaged.

Russian military expert Oleg Ivannikov, commenting on the strike of the Russian Armed Forces on the data center in Kyiv, said that Russian troops blinded the enemy. According to him, after the strike, the Ukrainian troops’ receipt of information from satellites will be critically slowed down.
