On December 12 morning, Kyivstar mobile operator experienced a large-scale failure, due to which subscribers cannot switch to other operators in domestic roaming. The problem affected other services and national roaming.
‘National roaming does not work due to the fact that the Kyivstaru network cannot transfer information about its subscribers to the networks of other operators due to a general technical failure,’ said Ukraine’s digital ministry.
The company says the failure is temporary. They are working to restore communication to the subscribers.
The failure partially affected the operation of some PrivatBank terminals and ATMs. However, this does not apply to the entire network.
‘After solving the current problem, we will discuss with all mobile operators how to avoid similar situations in the future and protect users from unexpected communication problems,’ the ministry stated.
Five armored vehicles “Kozak” have received a new mission – thanks to the support of Metinvest, they have been upgraded to full-fledged command and staff vehicles. These upgraded vehicles are now operating on the front line.
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
