Cyberattack in Ukraine targets government websites
A massive cyberattack left Ukrainian government websites temporarily unavailable on Friday, officials said, according to Al Jazeera report.
The disruption came amid heightened tensions with Russia and after talks between Moscow and the West failed to yield any significant progress this week.
Ukraine’s state security service (SBU) said late on Friday that it saw some signs the attack was linked to hacker groups associated with Russian intelligence services.
“All details of the incident are documented within the framework of the previously opened criminal proceedings. So far, we can say that there are some signs of involvement in the incident of hacker groups associated with the special services of the Russian Federation,” SBU said in a statement.
