Defense Intelligence of Ukraine hackers attacked 2 Russian banks - sources
Russian Agricultural Bank and Credit Bank of Moscow have been subjected to a hacker attack. The hacking was carried out by cyber specialists from the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, according to sources in the Ukrainian special services.
These banks currently have disrupted their websites, no access to internet banking services, and mobile applications are down.
At the same time, the technical services of the banks cannot yet even estimate when the stable operation of the services will be restored.
“These actions do not have a fixed expiration date. The financial system of Russia will be hit until the last Russian occupier leaves the territory of Ukraine. The Russians should realize that every financial institution is a legitimate target for Ukrainian Security and Defense Forces, as they all participate in financing the Russian occupation army,” the sources added.
