Amazon's critical infrastructure under fire. Drone strikes damaged three AWS data centres in the UAE and Bahrain following regional military escalation. The company confirmed structural damage, power disruptions, and fire suppression efforts that caused additional water damage. AWS is working to restore services but warns recovery will take time given the severity of physical impacts. The incidents underscore the vulnerability of essential technology infrastructure during geopolitical conflicts. Amazon has advised customers to back up data and consider migrating workloads to alternative facilities globally. With ongoing regional tensions and the US signalling potential strikes lasting weeks or longer, AWS cautioned that the Middle East operating environment remains highly unpredictable for businesses relying on cloud services in the area.
