Kyivstar restores mobile internet across Ukraine, reactivates
international roaming
Amsterdam, 15 December 2023 – VEON Ltd.
(NASDAQ: VEON, Euronext Amsterdam: VEON), a global digital operator
that provides converged connectivity and online services, today
announces that its Ukrainian subsidiary Kyivstar has restored
mobile internet services across the country following Tuesday’s
widespread cyber-attack. The restoration of mobile internet covers
all communication standards including 4G.
In addition to reactivation of mobile internet, international
roaming services have also been restored over the past 24 hours.
More than 95% of mobile network base stations in the territory
controlled by Ukraine are now active and working, up from yesterday
evening’s 90%.
Kyivstar had previously announced the reactivation of fixed
connectivity and mobile voice services; and will now focus on
launching SMS services and restoring access to the MyKyivstar
self-care application.
The company continues to work on ensuring the stability and
quality of the services as restoration progresses. The actual
experience of Kyivstar customers might vary depending on a number
of factors, and the company’s technical team are working diligently
to resolve all issues related to accessibility of the network and
the quality of the experience.
VEON and Kyivstar thank the Ukrainian law enforcement agencies,
the Security Service of Ukraine and government agencies for their
immediate response and assistance in addressing the attack, and
their support in restoring services. They also express their
gratitude to Kyivstar customers, corporate clients, partners and
industry colleagues for the overwhelming support they have shown on
public and private channels.
VEON and Kyivstar reiterate their commitment to keeping Ukraine
connected and resilient.
