Russian strike damages DataGroup data center in Kyiv; customer data safe

A Russian attack damaged a DataGroup data center, but customer data remains safe and all services are operational. No employees were injured. The company's preemptive infrastructure redundancy preserved data and ensured uninterrupted service. Specialists are now assessing damage and working to restore infrastructure. DataGroup expressed condolences for those killed in the attack. Russian forces systematically target Ukrainian critical and network infrastructure. On September 23, a Kyiv data center was damaged, causing partial outages for UTELS and "Pavutyna" networks. Ukraine's Foreign Ministry said the strikes aimed to disrupt air-raid warning systems, though experts assure a full internet shutdown won't occur.
