Pro-Ukraine hacker group claims Aeroflot cyber-attack

Pro-Ukraine hacker group claims Aeroflot cyber-attack

A pro-Ukraine hacker group, dubbed the "Ukraine IT Army," has claimed responsibility for a cyber-attack on Aeroflot, Russia's national airline. The Kremlin has expressed concern over these reports, describing them as "worrying." The hacker group, which was formed shortly after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, has been actively targeting Russian infrastructure and institutions as part of the ongoing conflict. The alleged cyber-attack on Aeroflot is the latest in a series of such incidents, though the extent of the damage and disruption caused is not yet clear. The Kremlin's response highlights the growing concern over the use of cyber warfare in the broader geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine, as well as their respective allies. As the conflict continues, the potential for further cyber-attacks and their impact on critical infrastructure and services remains a significant concern for both sides.
