It is noted that the control over the AMC-9 was lost on 17 June, but on 1 July, the connection has been restored. The reasons why the device fell apart in orbit, are still not clear.

In geostationary orbit AMC-9 was launched in 2003 with the help of the carrier rocket “proton-M”. The lifetime of the device is estimated at 15 years.

According to experts, the cause of the destruction of the satellite could be a collision with space debris.
