MOSCOW, April 8 (Reuters) – Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday that Ukrainian intelligence assessments that Russian and Iranian hackers have joined forces, reported on Tuesday by Reuters, are false.
“Allegations of some kind of joint effort between Russian and Iranian hackers, as you put it, are yet another lie, in this case, perpetrated by the Kyiv regime and Kyiv terrorist groups,” Zakharova said when asked by Reuters to comment on the report.
Zakharova, speaking at a press conference, said Ukraine was conducting its own large-scale cyberattacks against Russia.
