Russia is attacking the infrastructure of the Ukrainian computer network, but thanks to the widespread diffusion of internet channels, the country will not remain completely without connection. As Ukrinform reports, the announcement was made on Facebook by Serhiy 'Flash' Beskrestnov, unofficial advisor to President Volodymyr Zelensky on technological issues and an expert in the sector. “The Russians are attacking our computer network infrastructure. But Ukraine is a country with the widest spread of Internet channels, so the whole country (regions, cities) will not be left without the Internet,” Flash noted. Beskrestnov added that the attacks could cause local disruptions to network access. According to him, suppliers should resolve such issues promptly. “The cost of providing Internet services may actually increase to offset the costs of repairing damaged infrastructure,” the consultant explained. Beskrestnov also urged not to give in to misinformation and not to panic over news of a possible Internet outage. “We were already scared that there would be no food or fuel, and now we are scared with the disappearance of the Internet,” he stressed.
