Day two without internet connectivity, escalating damage, and casualties from Ukrainian assault: Top 5 Stories of August 9th
The current situation in Krasnodar Krai, Russia, is marked by significant mobile internet disruptions and partial outages. These disruptions are primarily due to security measures aimed at countering potential drone attacks.
The Russian authorities and defense headquarters have repeatedly imposed mobile internet restrictions and shutdowns in Krasnodar Krai and other regions as a preventive measure to block enemy coordination of drone strikes and protect military and public infrastructure. These measures, while precautionary, have caused internet outages, weakened mobile signals, disrupted communication apps like WhatsApp and Telegram, and negatively affected daily life and emergency response.
While there are no publicly confirmed recent drone attacks or extensive reported damages in Krasnodar Krai within the latest sources, the internet shutdowns are largely precautionary rather than reactive. Residents often suffer from the consequences of these measures, such as communication blackouts during emergencies and interference with online services.
The outages have also impacted daily life in the region, making it difficult to call taxis and pay without cash. Furthermore, several more drone fall sites have been reported in Krasnodar Krai, causing damage to homes and cars.
In a recent incident, over 60 children were left on the street after arriving at a camp near Tuapse. According to reports by "Live Kuban", the children were told their vouchers were not paid. Additionally, a person was injured in Slaviansk-na-Kubani due to Ukrainian attack, and new damage has been reported in Kuban due to Ukrainian attack, as reported by the governor.
