"MOSCOW, April 22 (RIA Novosti) – Russia's Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) has resumed normal operations after suffering an outage earlier this month caused by a malfunctioning satellite, the leading research institute of the Russian Space Agency said Tuesday.

“The GLONASS orbital group is now fully operational,” the Central Research Institute of Machine Building (TsNIIMash) said in a statement.

A total of 23 operational spacecraft out of 29 satellites in the GLONASS network provide navigation services around the world. Four spacecraft are in orbital reserve, and one is undergoing flight testing."
