Russia Intensifies Cyberattacks on Ukraine's Digital Infrastructure, Kyiv Says

Ukraine's prime minister said Russia is attacking the country's digital infrastructure with the same intensity as its power grid, urging government agencies to form cybersecurity teams quickly. The statement was made on Friday. Sergiy Koretskyi said Russia struck 10 data centres in Kyiv last month alone, with AI-aided cyberattacks on state systems and businesses also rising. He noted key digital agencies can already repel attacks using AI and expects the same readiness from all institutions. Moscow has intensified strikes on Ukrainian energy and digital targets ahead of winter, while Ukraine has extended its own strikes on Russian e-commerce giants. Kyiv faces challenges repelling attacks due to air-defence shortages and restrictions on Starshield satellite services.
