"Anonymous Declares Cyberwar on Pro-Russian Hacker Gang Killnet"

Hacktivist group Anonymous has recently announced that it is launching a cyberwar against pro-Russian group Killnet, which recently attacked European institutions.  Last week, Killnet attacked the websites of various Italian institutions and government ministries, including the superior council of the judiciary, its customs agency, its foreign affairs, education ministries, and cultural heritage ministries.  Killnet also launched attacks in early May, targeting Italy’s upper house of parliament, the National Health Institute (ISS), and the Automobile Club d’Italia.  Shortly. after Anonymous declared a cyberwar against Killnet on Twitter, they announced on Twitter that the official Killnet site was taken offline.  This news comes a few days after cybersecurity agencies in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand warned organizations beyond Ukraine’s borders that pro-Russian hackers may soon target them.
