[Instant News/Comprehensive Report]Russia announced on the 15th that it would withdraw some troops for military exercises on the Ukrainian border, but the US believes that this news has not been confirmed, and President Biden believes that Russia may still attack Ukraine. The Ukrainian government said on the 15th that several Ukrainian government departments and the websites of two state-run banks were attacked by cyberattacks, implying in a statement that Russia was behind the cyberattacks.
According to comprehensive foreign media reports, the Ukrainian government said that at least 10 Ukrainian websites have been blocked by “denial of service” (DoS) attacks, including the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Culture and Ukraine’s two largest state-run banks. The public also reported that the bank’s online payment and App functions might not be used normally.
“It cannot be ruled out that the ‘aggressor’ used such dirty tricks because its aggressive plan was not implemented on a large scale,” the Ukrainian Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security said in a statement, alluding to Russia as a cyber attack. , but the Center for Strategic Communications and Information Security did not provide further details.
Serhii Demediuk, an official with Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, said the cyber attack was part of Russia’s destabilization of the situation in Ukraine, aimed at preventing Ukraine’s push for a “Euro-Atlantic integration” policy and seizing power.
A European diplomat said the timing of the hack was worrisome because a full-scale military attack on Ukraine would be preceded by a cyber-attack, suggesting a “physical attack” was imminent, or Russia continues to harass Ukraine, “there is no doubt that Russia is behind it”.
