Russia Intensifies Digital Infrastructure Attacks in Ukraine, Poland Investigates Starlink Sabotage
Russia has intensified its campaign against Ukraine's digital infrastructure, conducting missile and drone strikes on data centers and internet nodes in Kyiv, causing internet outages for approximately 100,000 households. Concurrently, Polish authorities are investigating a fire at a Starlink ground station in central Poland as an act of sabotage potentially linked to foreign intelligence, though systems are reportedly restored. These actions indicate an expansion of Russian hybrid warfare tactics targeting critical communications infrastructure within Ukraine and potentially in NATO territory.
