Attacks on Ukraine’s Digital Infrastructure

Russian strikes have hit data centers and telecommunications facilities in Kyiv, including the Cosmonova data processing center, Bi-mobile, and Parkovy.

Ukrainian officials and providers have reported interruptions to internet and mobile access, broadcasting, and services that depend on reliable communications. The affected infrastructure supports civilian services as well as communications described by Russia as serving the military. Ukraine’s response has included relocating some data centers abroad and developing underground telecommunications networks, underscoring the challenge of maintaining connectivity when physical infrastructure is exposed to attack.
