"Detector Media" website under DDoS attack (updated)

The "Detector Media" website is being targeted in a DDoS attack, the team reports on Facebook.

The editors note that the website is working with interruptions and that their technicians are working on resolving the problem.

(Updated) "Detector Media" website editor Halyna Sklyarevska said in a comment to the IMI that the team could not be sure what exactly prompted today's attack.

"There have been three to four dozen such attacks per year during the war, some larger, some less in intensity. However, recently we, like other media, received threats about a bomb planted in our office, and we believe these threats to be connected with the DM Research Center reporting on the Russian special services trying to recruit Ukrainians on Telegram to set fire to military vehicles," said Halyna Sklyarevska.

She added that in her opinion, today's attack was also related to this reporting.

Earlier, the website of the investigative journalism agency Slidstvo.Info suffered a DDoS attack after the release of an investigation into the elite real estate owned by the Minister of Agrarian Policy Vitaliy Koval.
