Ukraine's air raid alert system was hacked, with false radiation warnings sent to residents per The Guardian.

The Ukrainian Air Force confirmed the breach, as users received alerts about nuclear and chemical threats in Kyiv, Fox News reports.

False alerts reportedly originated from a compromised mobile app, raising concerns over cybersecurity during ongoing warfare, Kyiv Independent notes.

The incident follows recent Russian strikes that cut power to thousands across Ukraine, Reuters reports.
