To record the circumstances and consequences of illegal actions to interfere with the Kyivstar network, "the operator has engaged representatives of law enforcement agencies and special state services who are currently working in the company's office," the company said.

"As of now, it is known that the personal data of subscribers has not been compromised. At the moment, the operator's specialists are working to eliminate the consequences of the hacker attack to restore communication and services as soon as possible," the statement said.

Kyivstar reportedly "will definitely provide compensation to subscribers who had no connection or could not use the operator's services" and apologized.

Kyivstar
