The Russian space agency Roscosmos was the target of a computer attack today, a day after publishing satellite photographs of the “decision-making centers” of the Ukrainian army that Russia has threatened to destroy if the country's territories are attacked.
"After the publication of spatial images of the 'decision-making centers' by Roscosmos, the state-owned company's website was the target of a DDoS attack“, wrote the head of the communication department of the Russian space agency, Dmitri Strugovets, in his Telegram account.
According to the representative of Roscosmos, “unlike March and April, when attacks originate abroad, this time they departed from Yekaterinburg“, Russian city located in the eastern part of the Ural mountains.
