Description
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack was launched against Spanish government and public websites, including in Granada, by the NoName hacking group. The attack was claimed by the group on the Telegram messaging service. The group often targets countries supporting Ukraine's efforts to fend off the Russian invasion. The attack was likely motivated by ideology, as the group cited talks between Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and Spanish acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez as a reason for the attack.
