Moscow faces internet disruptions as foreign leaders gather for summits

Russia's Ministry of Digital Development announced temporary internet restrictions in Moscow from October 27 to 29 to coincide with two major international summits: the Gas Exporting Countries Forum and the Russia-Africa summit. The ministry did not disclose the scope or nature of the restrictions.

Why it matters: Network operators and security teams in Moscow should prepare for potential connectivity disruptions and ensure backup communication channels during the summit period.
