The websites of the largest Russian media outlets were hacked by the Anonymous group, and a message appeared on the resources of publications (Kommersant, TASS, Izvestia, Forbes, etc.) calling for a stop to the military operation on the territory of Ukraine.
A message with the emblem of the group began to appear on the websites of publications at about 14:00 Moscow time. Media sites either do not load, or users see a hacker message with an appeal.
Representatives of TASS, Izvestia and Kommersant did not respond to Vedomosti’s request for a failure. “When you try to view the page, you may encounter an anti-war message with the logo of the hacker group Anonymous. Right now we are doing everything to fix the problems as soon as possible,” a representative of Izvestia told Vedomosti.
Vedomosti sent a request to Roskomnadzor with a request to comment on the failure of the sites.
Earlier, the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Communications reported about unprecedented DDoS attacks on domestic sites. Interruptions were observed in the work of the websites of the State Services, the Kremlin, etc.
