Hackers issued fake nuclear threat alerts to Ukraine's emergency app, per The Guardian.

Ukraine's air raid alert system was hacked just hours before Russia targeted its own system, Kyiv Independent reports.

Both Ukraine and Russia reported separate cyberattacks on emergency apps after a limited ceasefire ended, BBC notes.

The incident occurred as diplomatic efforts continue to ease tensions, with no immediate response from either side.
