Orange hails Middle East and Africa unit as key growth driver in Q1

Ukrainian operator Kyivstar allocated US$90 million to defend against suspected Russian cyberattacks against its network, a move that affected growth said Kyivstar CEO Oleksandr Komarov.

Operator Vodacom South Africa has built an enablement platform for mobile virtual network operators and signed up its first MVNO client, declaring the platform open for business.

Orange has raised its full-year targets after its Africa and Middle East unit was once again recognised as the group’s primary growth engine.
