Ukraine's Largest Telecom Operator, Kyivstar, Suffers Devastating Cyberattack

Kyivstar, Ukraine's largest telecom operator, has been hit by a major cyber attack, disrupting mobile and internet services across the country. The attack, claimed by pro-Russia hacktivist group KillNet and later by another group called Solntsepyok, is believed to be a result of the ongoing war with Russia. Kyivstar, owned by VEON, is working to restore services and has promised compensation to affected customers. The company has notified law enforcement and special state services, but has not provided details about the nature of the attack. The personal data of subscribers is believed to be safe.
