Russian court orders Yandex to remove refinery maps due to security risks from drone attacks.

A Russian court has ordered Yandex, Russia's leading internet service provider, to remove maps and photos of one of the country's largest oil refineries due to security concerns from Ukrainian drone attacks. The refinery has been targeted multiple times in 2024, and the court ruled that the public availability of its infrastructure information poses a threat to national defense and military supply chains. Yandex faces a month to comply with the order, which can be appealed.
