At least one person has been killed in a drone attack on Belgorod, according to the publication "Pechat," which reported explosions and a fire in the city center. Reports also indicated a fire in the courtyard of the "Paris" residential complex.
The operational headquarters of the Belgorod region stated that the city was subjected to a massive drone attack, with emergency services dispatched to the scene.
A VK data center in Novosergievka, near St. Petersburg, was reportedly struck. The facility, which holds approximately 20,000 servers, is located beside the Vostochnaya 330 kV substation, and connectivity loss may be attributed to a power cut.
According to Netblocks, VK social media has been operating at 56% of normal connectivity following the incident.
