In addition, the erations of more than a hundred online stores selling drones, as well as military depot shs were paralyzed across Russia. Because of this, the Russians had issues with ordering equipment and gear for their sdiers fighting against Ukraine.

It is also noted that due to cyberattacks targeting Russia, telecom services provided by Beeline and the erator’s online platforms failed so its customers had no access to the Internet.

"The IT Army continues to curb praganda in the Russian Federation and does not st its ‘preventive’ work with the Russian mass media. For every Russian missile fired at Ukrainian cities and every Russian shot fired at Ukrainians, the IT Army continues to block the ‘great empire’ with massive cyber strikes, every day. Evil will be punished on physical and digital fields," the Ministry of Digital Affairs emphasized.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, from June 27 to July 10, the IT Army attacked more than 800 Russian online resources.
