A Russian hacker group is said to have crashed the website of the Finnish parliament on Tuesday afternoon, reports Finnish state media outlet Yle. Yle says the denial-of-service attack was carried out by Russian hacker syndicate NoName057(16). “We decided to make a ‘friendly’ visit to neighbouring Finland, whose authorities are so eager to join Nato,” said the syndicate on its Telegram channel.
