Cyber attack on the Ukrainian Defense Ministry
Reuters news agency said that the Ukrainian Defense Ministry and a number of banks were subjected to a cyber attack, at a time when the world is awaiting an assumed date for a Russian attack that is expected to include cyber attacks.
Western reports had expected that Russia would launch an attack on its former Soviet neighbor on Wednesday.
However, contrary to the context of events, Russia withdrew part of its soldiers from the lines of contact today, Tuesday, and Moscow announced the travel of the Defense Minister to Syria to participate in maneuvers with the ally country.
In the past hours, diplomatic efforts have accelerated to ease tension, while Moscow accused Washington of promoting war, describing its behavior as "hysterical."
Russia denies it intends to wage war against Ukraine, but its military build-up on the border worries the West.
