Ukraine's Defence Intelligence has carried out a large-scale cyberattack against the resources of the ruling party United Russia, according to Radio Liberty.

The cyberattack was confirmed by RBC-Ukraine sources within the special services.

In the morning, the ruling party of Russia announced a massive DDoS attack on e-services related to the Victory Dictation campaign scheduled for today.

Cyberattack on the United Russia resources

Defense Intelligence hackers attacked servers, websites of United Russia, as well as the domains ER.RU and edinros.

Despite the party's statements about allegedly supporting the work of critical digital infrastructure, the majority of resources are not working.

Other cyberattacks

Ukrainian hackers and the IT army regularly attack popular resources, Russian payment systems, and other state enterprises. For example, at the end of last year, hackers disrupted the operation of Evotor payment terminals.

In winter, 200 gigabytes of data were obtained about thousands of Russian organizations.

Hackers attacked an enemy state enterprise working on the construction of military facilities throughout Russian territory. In particular, documentation from the Ministry of Defense of Russia was stolen.

In March, the Moscow metro was targeted.
