On April 24, 2025, TV Ciudad’s website was compromised in a cyberattack. The attack displayed AI‑generated fake images of politicians. Among the depicted figures were Yamandú Orsi and Carolina Cosse. A manipulated nude torso of Martín Lema was also shown. Intimidating messages accompanied the images. The messages included threats directed at the Chamber of Commerce. The attackers identified themselves with the handle GO.ETH. GO.ETH has been linked to previous intrusions on the outlets Brecha and El País. The attackers left statements claiming they would continue targeting institutions they perceive as oppressive. Following the breach, TV Ciudad filed a police report with authorities. The outlet is working to restore its website and online service. Investigators have not yet determined any additional participants in the attack. Authorities have confirmed that no sensitive data were accessed during the incident. TV Ciudad continues to monitor the situation while maintaining its regular broadcast operations.
