Russian forces launched a repeat strike on the Cosmonova data center, causing severe damage to the backbone network and triggering large-scale disruptions in digital service delivery. This incident marks the second attack on the critical infrastructure facility within the past 24 hours, significantly complicating operations for both the data center itself and associated internet service providers, including Kolo.TV.
Chronology and Consequences of the Repeat Strike
According to an official statement by Cosmonova management, the first strike occurred late yesterday, though client data was fully preserved thanks to geographic redundancy. The morning missile strike inflicted fresh damage on the facility, affecting key communication nodes. Emergency services and SES units rapidly deployed to the scene, though company technical specialists are still awaiting official clearance to enter the damaged building for a detailed damage assessment.
Contradictory Data
While official company reports emphasize the complexity of the situation and the temporary unavailability of communication channels, various sources provide differing estimates regarding restoration timelines. Initial forecasts by industry experts indicated that basic functions could be restored within a few hours, but internet provider Kolo.TV noted that this time the situation proved significantly more complex than standard emergency scenarios, requiring more time to reroute traffic to backup paths.
Response and Emergency Measures
As a result of the attack, access to the company's official website, corporate chats, and customer support telephone lines has been temporarily blocked. Technical teams are working in an enhanced mode while simultaneously deploying backup capacities to quickly resume mission-critical services. The company promises to keep users informed about restoration progress as confirmed data emerges from the site.
