Website of Russian oil firm Gazprom Neft goes down after apparent hack

-The web site of Gazprom Neft, the oil arm of Russian state fuel large Gazprom, went down on Wednesday after an obvious hack, in what appeared like the most recent assault on government-linked websites following Russia’s actions in Ukraine.

The web site briefly confirmed a press release purporting to be from Gazprom chief government Alexei Miller, an in depth ally of President Vladimir Putin.

Miller final month urged the fuel large’s 500,000 workers to rally round Putin to protect Russia as an important energy within the face of international hostility.

The assertion attributed to him on what appeared like a hacked model of the location cited him as making vital feedback about Russia’s determination to ship tens of 1000's of troops into neighbouring Ukraine, the place 1000's of troopers and civilians have been killed.

The web site stopped working quickly afterwards.

“The data revealed on the location on the morning of April 6 … just isn't true and can't be thought to be an official assertion of the corporate’s representatives or shareholders,” Gazprom Neft mentioned.

A Gazprom spokesperson dismissed the assertion on the web site as nonsense.

The web site of the state information company TASS was hacked in February to point out a message calling for Moscow to halt what it calls its “particular operation” in Ukraine.
