Hacker group defaces Russian websites to display the Kremlin on fire
A hacker group that goes by CH01 defaced a series of Russian websites on the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine.
The hackers replaced the sites content with a video showing the Kremlin on fire, along with a song by a Russian rock band named Kino. The video also includes a QR code that links to a Telegram channel, where the hackers posted a message claiming responsibility for the attacks and making it clear that these defacements were politically motivated.
Hacker group CH01 in solidarity with the entire civilized world, in order to restore justice and the triumph of the forces of light and goodness, on the anniversary of the terrorist invasion of dictatorial Russia into a strong and independent Ukraine, we declare cyber war on dictatorship and totalitarianism and the idiocy of Putin's criminal regime. Let the prophecy come true
, the message read, according to an online translation from the original, which is in Russian.
CH01 appears to be a brand new hacking group, as their Telegram channel only had a couple of subscribers on Thursday night, and they published their first tweet on the same day.
