"\""Celebrations call for precautions" Moscow's internet goes offline forstacked events
Moscow authorities implement city-wide internet shutdown
Gearing up for the 80th anniversary of the triumph against the Nazis, Moscow dwellers are bracing for a temporary hiatus in their digital lives. Yep, you heard it right, the Kremlin's got some unexpected downtime plans for us!
According to official statements, the city's internet services may experience some snags until May 10th[2]. Dmitri Peskow, the Kremlin's spokesman, announced these interruptions in a lighthearted manner, stating they were "merely a restriction in mobile internet usage." He further justified the move, emphasizing the "dangerous neighborhood" vibe[3].
Curious about the context? Picturing a security scene straight outta a thriller movie, eh? Well, the Kremlin is hosting a slew of influential state guests for these Victory Day celebrations[6], and they're taking absolutely no chances[2]. Some of these bigwigs include the Chinese President and Party leader, Xi Jinping, who's expected to attend the grand parade in Moscow[6].
But wait, there's more! As if the city's digital detox wasn't intriguing enough, Ukraine has been reportedly causing quite the chaos at airports[6]. With all the ruckus, it's no surprise that the Kremlin's pulling out all the stops to keep things secure[2].
Now, you might be thinking, "Awww, bummer! No internet during the Soviet's victory celebrations?" But hey, consider this a perfect opportunity to take a digital break and enjoy the real-world festivities!
