On Wednesday, a new cyberattack targeted several official Ukrainian sites made inaccessible.
The origin of this DDos attack (by denial of service) is to be attributed to Russian operators, who "don't even try" to hide their identity, the agency said.
Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fyodorov said earlier that the attack began in the late afternoon, disrupting the operation of the websites of several banks and ministries in the country.
The home pages of the sites of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and that of the Cabinet of Ministers were thus inaccessible, noted AFP journalists.
The sites concerned succeeded in "redirecting the traffic to another access provider to minimize the damage", however assured Mr. Fiodorov.
In January, Ukraine was already targeted by a major cyberattack against a number of government sites.
The authorities then claimed to have evidence of Russian involvement, accusations denied by Moscow.
A major computer attack targeting strategic Ukrainian infrastructure is one of the scenarios mentioned as the harbinger of a classic military offensive.
The renewed intensity of violence on the eastern front of Ukraine, the scene for eight years of a war with separatists supported by Russia, makes the West fear an imminent Russian invasion.
