Between October 8 and 11, Ukrainian drones hit three of Yandex's biggest data centers, in Sasovo, Kaluga and Vladimir. For millions of Russians, Yandex is their Google, their Uber, their Netflix and their digital bank all at once. When its cloud went down, email, mobile payments and taxis stopped working, along with services that depend on it, from Russian Railways' website to Pulkovo airport. The Sasovo site also housed two of the three supercomputers Russia uses to train its own artificial intelligence, and according to Kommersant, replacing the damaged equipment will take at least six months. This is the latest piece of a campaign that first emptied Russia's gas stations and then burned its logistics warehouses. With its own FP-1 drones and Flamingo missiles, Ukraine can now strike between 1,500 and 3,000 kilometers away without asking anyone for permission. In July, Russian refineries processed the least crude since May 2002, and in September Russia's oil and gas revenues fell 22% year on year. But the biggest obstacle to this campaign isn't in Moscow. It's in Washington. With diesel at record prices and the midterms approaching, Donald Trump has pressured Kyiv to stop hitting Russian energy, from an "energy ceasefire" Zelensky learned about from the news to threats to cut off weapons and intelligence. In this video we look at how Ukraine is hitting Russia's digital brain and why its toughest battle may now be with the White House. Do you think strikes deep inside Russia can change what Russians think about the war? 🔐 Learn about finance with us in a simple, free, and straight-to-the-point way: https://www.visualfaktory.com/free-gift/ Join the VisualPolitik community and support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/VisualPolitik Thu, 12 Nov 2026 17:37:02 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://vid.freedif.org https://vid.freedif.org/client/assets/images/icons/icon-1500x1500.png https://vid.freedif.org/videos/watch/a9316622-5bd6-4a6b-aadb-a074bbafb8c8 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://vid.freedif.org/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
