Ukraine’s state communications agency said Friday that Russian forces had invaded a Kherson-based Internet company and disconnected all equipment, threatening to confiscate it if the company did not connect to Russian networks.
The incident is the latest in a string of attacks mounted against Ukrainian Internet providers and satellite broadband services.
“Free access to information is a major threat to the enemy in the occupied territories of our country,” a statement released by the State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection (SSSCIP) said. “As long as Ukrainians know about the true course of the war, Russian propaganda fails.”
