Warm-up before revenge for Kyivstar: Ukrainian hackers leave part of Moscow without internet, TV

Hackers from the Blackjack group, who are likely to be involved with the SBU, have hacked into Moscow's M9com Internet provider and demolished its servers. This was reported by our interlocutors.

We are talking about 20 TB of deleted data, including the company's official website, branch websites, mail server, cyber defence services, and more. As a result of the hacker attack, some Moscow residents were left without internet and television.

"The cyber warriors downloaded more than 10 GB of data from the company's mail server and client databases, which they made available for anyone to examine," the sources said.

The hackers said that M9kom was one of the "warm-up" attacks before the real hacking of the Ukrainian operator.
