Capitals Hit by Mobile Internet Outages Ahead of Victory Day Security Push

Widespread mobile internet outages hit Moscow and St. Petersburg amid authorities’ temporary restrictions tied to security concerns ahead of Victory Day. A whitelist of allowed sites and services (including Gosuslugi, Yandex, VKontakte and Odnoklassniki) is being finalized, with some users reporting disruptions to apps like Yandex Go and Sberbank access. By midday, the Digital Ministry said access was being restored, but warned further restrictions could return as law enforcement coordinates on the whitelist.

Putin Defends Mobile-Internet Outages as Security Measure Amid War Fronts Expand

Russian President Putin publicly justified ongoing mobile-internet outages as a security measure and signaled that restrictions will continue, while the Kremlin pursues a narrative of NATO pressure and Baltic-state tensions. On the battlefield, Russian forces pressed operations across Kharkiv, Sumy, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia regions, conducted drone strikes, and a deadly apartment building attack was reported in Dnipro. The European Union finalized the final piece of a 90 billion euro, interest-free loan to Ukraine to bolster defense capacity and macroeconomic support, highlighting Kyiv’s ongoing military and economic needs amid the conflict.
