All 34 British OneWeb satellites successfully launched into orbit

This was reported in the account of the state corporation "Roscosmos" on Twitter.

“All 34 OneWeb communications satellites have successfully separated from the Fregat Upper Stage and launched into target orbits,” the statement said.

According to Dmitry Rogozin, the general director of Roscosmos, the launch of the Russian Soyuz-2.1b launch vehicle with 34 OneWeb devices on board was carried out in a normal mode.

On August 21, a state commission authorized the booster to refuel ahead of the launch of OneWeb communications satellites.

The Soyuz launch was postponed twice. For the first time, the reason for the transfer was a malfunction of the Russian equipment of the launch complex. In the second, OneWeb asked to postpone the launch due to a software malfunction in the satellite ground control complex.
