Russia Denies Ukraine's Cyberattack Claims

0:00On April 8, Russia's foreign ministry is firing back at claims from Ukraine that Russian and Iranian hackers are teaming up for cyber-ups. Their spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, called the whole thing a straight-up lie, pushed by Kiev. This all stems from a Reuters report on Tuesday, where Ukrainian intelligence said the hackers from both countries linked up to hit Western targets, harder. Zakharova dropped this denial during a press conference on Wednesday, April 8, when reporters asked her directly about it. She flipped the script, too, accusing Ukraine of running massive cyber-attacks against Russia themselves. Tensions in the cyber world keep ramping up between these two, with both sides pointing fingers amid the bigger conflict. This has been Global News Today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with The Story.
