“On the night of April 28, 2025, Epicenter experienced a technical failure that affected the operation of the retail chain. The online store epicentrk.ua continues to operate and accept orders,” the company said in a statement.

Epicenter noted that there may be delays in the delivery of orders to customers.

As a reminder, in March, Ukrzaliznytsia suffered the largest cyberattack in its history, but in 89 hours a team of railroaders, the SBU Cyber Department, CERT-UA at the State Special Communications Service and partners restored the basic functionality of online services.
