The Russian Post website is temporarily unavailable due to power outages caused by a fire in the building on Varshavskoye Shosse on Monday, the company said in a statement.
Due to the fire, the post's corporate website, www.russianpost.ru, and the tracking system of registered mail has temporarily been shut down.
The enterprise is also temporarily not receiving or issuing money transfers. All other mail operations, including parcel services, are working in normal mode.
The technical glitch should be resolved and the tracking services restored by the end of the day.
On Monday, in a five-story building of the Russian Post at 38 Varshavskoye Shosse, several bags of mail caught on fire. No one was injured.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
