The incident comes amid reports of civilian casualties and the loss of telecoms services for many".Several civil society groups were concerned about the possibility of direct attacks on the country's internet infrastructure.Russia has previously been linked to DDoS attacks against Ukrainian government sites but a full blackout would mean to disable telecommunications infrastructure at the network level, and silencing Ukrain in the process.Earlier, as Russia began military operations against Ukraine, key Ukrainian government websites were down as multiple cyber attacks hit the country.The websites of the Ukrainian Cabinet of Ministers, and those of the ministries of foreign affairs, infrastructure, education and others, were down.The US officials had warned that Russia will very likely use cyber operations in conjunction with military action in Ukraine.Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Thursday.
