Summary

On October 19, 2026, Russian forces launched an attack using FP-9 missiles and drones that destroyed the Datagroup data centre in Kyiv, rendering its infrastructure inoperable and beyond repair. The assault, which the Russian Ministry of Defense described as part of an offensive against defense-related sites, also targeted the Fire Point logistics hub, the Khimvolokno company, a railway depot, and the Planeta Plastik plant. The attack resulted in 1 person killed and 8 people injured. While Datagroup has shifted operations to backup sites, the company confirmed that the primary facility cannot be rebuilt.
