Russian state media company hit by unprecedented cyberattack, Kremlin says

Russian state media company VGTRK has been targeted in an unprecedented cyberattack, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday, saying that specialists were working hard to determine who was responsible.

VGTRK, which owns and operates Russia’s main national TV channels and a slew of regional channels and radio stations, said earlier on Monday in a statement that its online service had come under cyberattack overnight, but that radio and TV broadcasting were working as normal despite the attack.
