[Regnum] The website of the Lugansk Information Center has been under a powerful DDoS attack for several hours now. Experts call it the strongest in the agency’s almost 10-year history. This was reported in the Telegram channel LuganskInformCenter Z.

Users were warned that due to the attack, access to the resource for many is still limited or completely impossible.

“The agency’s technical specialists are taking all necessary measures to correct the situation and restore access to the site,” management assured.

At the same time, the agency’s editorial staff continues its work and will promptly inform readers about the progress of the presidential elections in the Russian Federation and other events in the Lugansk People’s Republic in the Telegram channel, as well as on the VKontakte page.

As Regnum reported, the largest number of attacks on the Moscow system of remote electronic voting (DEG) come from the USA and Great Britain, said on March 16, the head of the Public Headquarters for monitoring the elections in Moscow in 2024, Vadim Kovalev.

The head of the Central Election Commission (CEC) Ella Pamfilova explained that since the beginning of voting in the Russian presidential elections, the remote electronic voting system (DEG) has been subject to 160 thousand DDoS attacks. The main attacks were on the voting portal itself - 130 thousand attacks, almost 30 thousand attacks on the DEG monitoring portal. During the same period, the Central Election Commission website was subject to 18 thousand hacker attacks, 141 of which were high-risk attacks, Pamfilova noted.

Hackers hacked the website of the Russian Red Cross
Hackers hacked the website of the Russian Red Cross (RRC) - the organization does not carry out any paid evacuation of residents from the Belgorod region. Chairman of the organization Pavel Savchuk reported to TASS.

As Savchuk explained, a message appeared on the RKK website that the organization was allegedly conducting paid evacuation from the territory of Belgorod and the Belgorod region. The text even included prices, and the evacuation itself was organized in response to an appeal from “RDK” (an abbreviation used by the “Russian Volunteer Corps,” an organization designated as terrorist in Russia).

“The website of the Russian Red Cross was subject to a hacker attack. Now our specialists are eliminating the problems that have arisen,” Pavel Savchuk assured.

The Chairman also asked IT companies to help ensure the information security of the organization’s resources for uninterrupted humanitarian work and providing assistance to people.

As Regnum reported, Ukrainian hackers from the Beregini group published screenshots of Ukrainian Armed Forces documents on the losses of American Abrams tanks on their Telegram channel.

The video surveillance system at polling stations in the Tyumen region suffered a severe cyber attack on the first day of voting in the presidential elections, said Ella Pamfilova, Chairman of the Central Election Commission of the Russian Federation.
