Yandex Data Center Knocked Offline

**Overall: incidents detected, no internet-wide outage.** The core cloud platforms (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) and the major CDNs are working normally. The biggest event of the day happened somewhere we don't track: a drone strike took Yandex's largest data center offline in Russia.

**Yandex data center offline after drone strike (Russia)**

Overnight, a drone strike set fire to the building housing Yandex's data center in Sasovo, Ryazan region. The company said the facility has stopped operating completely and that some services may be unavailable. No one was hurt. Downdetector logged more than 1,300 user reports, mostly about Yandex Cloud, Yandex Documents and Yandex Tables. Search and Taxi stayed online. Some reports said connectivity across Yandex's network dropped to roughly 70% of normal, and sites hosted on Yandex Cloud were affected too, including Cian, Russian Railways and several regional government portals. Sasovo opened in 2014 and is rated at up to 12 MW. Yandex has not said when it expects the site to come back. Sources: [CNBC](cnbc.com), [The Record](therecord.media), [Meduza](meduza.io).

**GitHub, October 5–7:** a rough few days, with five incidents rated major or critical. On October 7 there were two critical incidents affecting Git operations, pull requests, Actions and Issues (about 15:14–16:25 and 17:17–18:04 UTC), with widespread impact for roughly ten minutes during the first. A root-cause analysis has been promised. ([GitHub Status](githubstatus.com), [Android Authority](androidauthority.com))

**Cloudflare, October 7:** network performance issues in Columbus (major, resolved) and a short Cloudflare API issue.

**ElevenLabs:** a 10-minute slowdown on Music endpoints this morning, plus EU SIP-call disruption for Agents on October 6. Both are resolved.

**All clear:** AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, Azure DevOps, GitHub (currently), Discord, Slack, Atlassian, Vercel, Heroku, DigitalOcean, Stripe, Cursor, Groq, Replicate, Cohere and Stability AI. We found no reports of Meta, Fastly or major ISP problems today, and no notable BGP incidents surfaced. Meta's status page couldn't be read automatically, so that one rests on outage-report signal only.
