Ukraine Targets Yandex Data Centers in Retaliation
Ukraine attacks Yandex data centers in response to Russian strikes on Ukrainian digital infrastructure.
The attacks are a new escalation in the conflict, targeting the digital infrastructure that underpins both economies. Yandex is Russia’s largest IT company, and its data centers are a critical part of its operations. The Ukrainian strikes are a response to recent Russian attacks on Ukrainian data centers and communication facilities.
The conflict has already disrupted energy infrastructure, and the targeting of digital infrastructure marks a new phase in the war. The impact of the attacks on Yandex’s operations is not yet clear.
