Israel Declares State Of Emergency As Key Infrastructures Suffers Cyber Attacks
Israel suffers its biggest cyber attack ever. The cyber assault took down websites for the nation’s interior, health, justice and welfare ministries, as well as that of the prime minister’s office. All are pages on Israel’s gov.il domain.
In response to the attacks, Israel’s cyber protection agency declared a state of emergency Monday as the country’s government websites went down in an apparent online attack.
The extent of the damage is still unclear as officials said they were checking with Israeli power and water companies to see if they had been affected, though Israel’s utility websites appeared to be functioning normally.
Who attacked Israel?
That is the question on everyone’s mind. Israeli officials suspected the attack was the work of another country but maintained that they could not yet determine who was responsible.
However, the public have formed their opinion on the matter already. One Twitter user, Johnny, said the attacks came a few hours after the said nation declared its intentions to go against sanctions on Russia.
