Cyber attack by the Anonymous hacker group on the government websites of the Islamic Republic
With the increase in public protests over the killing of Mahsa Amini by the morality police and the Islamic Republic’s efforts to cut off the internet in protesting cities, the Anonymous hacker group announced an attack on Iranian government websites.
On the evening of Tuesday, September 20, the Anonymous group posted a video on their Twitter page, stating: This is a message from an anonymous group to all of Iran. We are here and with you. The operation has begun.
Hours later, several government websites in Iran, including the information site of the government spokesperson, became inaccessible.
