Russia's Digital Development Ministry has proposed requiring data center operators to disconnect non-priority clients to meet a mandatory 10% capacity reserve set out in a decree signed by Vladimir Putin. Meduza reported the proposal, which is intended to keep whitelisted services running, and no final decision was reported. Ukrainska Pravda reported that local businesses are increasingly moving data storage to foreign sites, particularly in Kazakhstan, after a series of drone strikes on server infrastructure inside Russia. The Moscow Times reported that Yandex says nearly 3% of cloud customer data was permanently lost after the strikes, which it attributed to critical equipment damage and failure by some customers to keep external backups.
