The UK is considering the possibility of carrying out a cyber attack against Russia in response to the ex-Colonel of the GRU Sergey Skrypal and his daughter Yulia in Salisbury. This statement was made on Tuesday by The Times, citing sources in the government of the United Kingdom.

Media: the UK is exploring the possibility of a cyber attack against Russia




Recall that on Monday, Teresa May said that Russia was “very likely involved in what happened to Sergei Skripale,” and also urged Moscow to give a “trustworthy response” by the end of Tuesday, and in its absence London would regard Russian actions as “illegal the use of force from Russia against the United Kingdom. "

This, according to The Times, will provide an opportunity for London to apply Article 51 of the UN Charter. It refers to the “inalienable right to individual or collective self-defense if an armed attack on a member of the organization occurs.”

According to the newspaper, the British Defense Ministry, in conjunction with the Government Communications Center (Government Communications Headquarters, one of the British intelligence agencies responsible for maintaining electronic intelligence and protecting government and military information), is developing a cyber program. She, the newspaper notes, can be used to attack the computer network of the Kremlin or on sites that, according to British conviction, distribute unreliable newsTASS reports

        hi , Eugene.
        The British cyberattack announced by May and Johnson is a very problematic business, one must think that our respective services have taken measures to neutralize the dangers. But the very fact that the second person of Kingsdom speaks openly about these intentions, speaks of the declaration of a cyber war in Russia. And not only from the British, but also France, who sang with them. Macron turned out to be the same two-faced "chip" as its predecessor.

        In this situation, in the Federation Council of the Russian Federation they are already talking about breaking off relations with Britain:

      Travanuli themselves traitor

      Mi-6 has a generally strange tradition of poisoning former Russian traitors who have already worked their way out. The most incomprehensible thing is that there are no results of investigations into the poisonings of Litvinenko, Berezovoy and others. Surely, Yushchenko’s poisoning from the same opera, the synths with Litvinenko’s poisoning are very similar. But here the British special services are clearly over the top. Firstly, there is a possibility that Skripal and his daughter will remain alive, and secondly, the persecution of close relatives can easily end in revenge. Skripal, though a traitor, is not such a deb ... like T. May, he will immediately understand "where his legs grow from," there is no sense to the Russian special services to pardon him first, and then to poison him.

    In my opinion, another loud quacking duck from the British press. The cyber attack declared and carried out by the official structures of the state is a full-fledged aggression and a bellie incident. And attacks are unprovable - this is the routine of IT specialists, no more. Therefore, this is a link to another "finger-sucked source"
