Russia’s Yandex Says Data Center in Vladimir Shut Down After Drone Attack
Some of Yandex's services are currently unavailable to users, the company said.
Russian tech firm Yandex reported on Sunday that its data center in the Vladimir region was shut down following a drone attack. The incident left certain services unavailable to users, though there were no casualties reported. This marks the third significant data center disruption within a few days for Yandex. Earlier on Friday, the company disclosed that its data center in Kaluga, southwest of Moscow, had sustained damage from Ukrainian drones, causing partial operations.
Prior to that, on the previous day, Yandex's data hub in Sasovo, southeast of Moscow, was hit by a Ukrainian attack, disrupting two of the three supercomputers crucial for developing the company's AI model.
