### Consequences of the night attack: communication disruptions

The Vodafone operator has reported possible temporary internet outages in Kyiv. The cause was the aftermath of the night Russian shelling of the capital. The company warned customers of possible difficulties accessing fixed internet services.

In a statement, Vodafone emphasized that this is not about planned technical work, but about the real consequences of the strike. Company specialists have been working since early morning to restore the network and eliminate malfunctions.

### Death toll rises: 13 dead, 73 injured

According to the latest data, 86 people were injured as a result of the night attack on Kyiv, of whom 13 died. Rescuers continue search operations under the rubble of damaged residential buildings, especially in the Darnytskyi district of the city.

### Reaction of the Russian Ministry of Defense and mourning in Kyiv

The Russian Ministry of Defense stated that the strike was carried out against defense industry facilities, but did not mention casualties among the civilian population. At the same time, July 3 was declared a Day of Mourning in Kyiv: state flags were lowered, all entertainment events were canceled.

All details about the consequences of the strike on the capital on July 2 can be found in a separate RBK-Ukraine article.
