Internet outages in Ukraine are becoming more common — with at least one city almost completely offline for a week — as Russia continues its advance on the country, cutting off civilians’ connections with the rest of the world.that “Russia is probably targeting Ukraine’s communications infrastructure in order to reduce Ukrainian Citizens’ access to reliable news and information.”
For Ukrainians fleeing Russian forces, that creates nerve-wracking situations in which people can’t check in on their loved ones. Maxim Naumenko, 24, a social worker from Mariupol who left with his parents and brother soon after Russian forces crossed the border, said he’s been unable to get updates on family members who were still in the city when he left.
“It’s a big melee right now,” he said. “You have total outages, you have slowdowns, and you have physical cuts involving power,” he said. “We know that war has impacts on telecommunications, but what we’ve seen in Ukraine is on a different level.” The company believes the incident only affected internet service, not customer data, and it is still working to restore full service, said Chris Phillips, the company’s vice president of public relations.
