Ukraine's air raid warning app was hit by cyberattacks after the truce ended, per Al Jazeera. The system sent false alerts to users, raising concerns about potential hacking.

Ukrainian officials confirmed that the public alert system was compromised, with reports of false radiation warnings issued in Kyiv, as noted by The Guardian.

The Ukrainian Air Force stated that the app was hacked, sending out misleading information during a critical time, Bloomberg reports. This follows recent Russian strikes that cut power to thousands across Ukraine.

The cyberattack on Kyiv's alert system is part of broader concerns about digital security during wartime as Russia continues its military campaign in Ukraine.
