According to a report by Kommersant, citing the Interfax news agency, part of the company\u2019s server infrastructure was damaged, and several modules were completely knocked out of action. This is the second reported attack on the company\u2019s data centres in two days: on 8 October, its data centre in Sasovo, in the Ryazan Region, came to a complete standstill following a fire. The consequences of the latest attack and the timeframe for restoring the damaged equipment are currently being assessed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<p><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>On 9 October, drones attacked the Yandex data centre in Kaluga, Russia.<\/li>\n<li>According to reports in the Russian media, several server infrastructure modules have been completely taken out of action.<\/li>\n<li>The Kaluga data centre is one of the company\u2019s largest facilities in Russia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Yandex\u2019s server infrastructure has been damaged in Kaluga\u00ab<\/h2>\n<p>On the morning of 9 October, Russian media reported a new drone attack on digital infrastructure sites.

Several of its modules have been completely knocked out of action.<\/p>\n<p>Such modules provide space for server equipment and support the operation of associated engineering systems. Any loss of their operational capability may limit the data centre\u2019s computing capacity and necessitate the transfer of the workload to other sites.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the exact number of damaged modules, their purpose and the extent of the damage have not yet been specified. Nor is there any confirmation that the entire Kaluga data centre has ceased operations.<\/p>\n<h2>The Kaluga data centre is one of the largest in Russia<\/h2>\n<p>\u00abYandex\u00bb is developing a large-scale data centre in the \u00abGrabtsovo\u00bb industrial park in the Kaluga region. The company announced the construction of the facility in 2022.

The company officially confirmed that the data centre had ceased operations entirely. Following the incident, users experienced disruptions to a number of digital services.<\/p>\n<p>According to Reuters, this centre housed two of the company\u2019s three supercomputers, which were used to develop artificial intelligence models.<\/p>\n<h2>The Kaluga Region reported 26 drones overnight<\/h2>\n<p>Governor of the Kaluga Region <strong>Vladislav Shapsha<\/strong> stated that on the night of 9 October, Russian air defences had allegedly shot down 26 drones.
