Ukraine strikes a Sberbank data center in Russia. Meanwhile, Kyiv isn’t getting crucial missile warnings from the U.S., and SpaceX is restricting Starlink.

A fire erupted in a residential building in Kyiv following a Russian attack on October 13. Ukrainian monitoring channels reported the incident shortly after. Russian drones targeted a Sberbank data center in Balakovo, Saratov region, on October 14 night. The strike caused damage to residential buildings and resulted in one death.

Sberbank officials confirmed the attack, stating that all bank systems and services remained operational. This marks the first Ukrainian attack on Sberbank data centers. Earlier this week, Ukrainian drones struck Yandex data centers in Ryazan, Vladimir, and Kaluga regions, as well as in Kaluga. Sberbank had planned to build a data center in Saratov in 2020, which is expected to be Europe's largest and house a supercomputer.

Ukrainian partners failed to warn Kyiv in advance about a ballistic missile strike on the capital, President Volodymyr Zelensky reported on October 13. The U.S. withheld intelligence about the October 12 missile strike on Kyiv due to poor weather conditions, according to Politico. SpaceX restricted Starlink operations for Ukrainian forces, limiting the speed of drones that rely on satellite communications, affecting their ability to carry out certain missions. This action is suspected to be politically motivated.
