We have relevant data from a number of banks, and there are also problems with access to BP websites (Verkhovna Rada. – RBC) (already working), Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. — RBC) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is due to traffic switching to another provider to minimize the damage from the attack,” Fedorov wrote.

By 19:00 Moscow time, the websites of the Verkhovna Rada, the government and the Foreign Ministry are working as usual.
