The Ukrainian Ministry of Digital Transformation wrote this on Telegram.

"The Russian Central Bank, the political party of Russian patriots, and Ukraine's Independence Day in Crimea. The IT army disabled more than 450 online resources in two weeks", it is noted. 

From August 15 to 28, the Ukrainian IT army disabled the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. The institution had to disable services and exchange of electronic documents. This paralyzed the work of banks in the country.

Hackers have blocked all the resources of the political party of propagandists Fair Russia - Patriots - For Truth. 

The IT army suspended the operation of Russian online money transfer services, through which Russians also issued international virtual cards.

The Russian job search site SuperJob also experienced bugs. It is reported that the service started working in the occupied regions of Ukraine, so that the Russians would open vacancies and employ 'their' people in the occupied territories.

Also, the main website of the DNS retail company, which allowed the illegal import of Ukrainian goods into the Russian Federation, did not escape the hacking of Ukrainian hackers.

Hackers took turns shutting down large propagandist Russian media - TASS, RIA Novosti, MK, and their individual projects: "During the downtime, these resources lost a total of over a million potential consumers of Russian propaganda".

On August 24, on the main pages of Russian websites in the temporarily occupied Crimea, the IT army posted congratulations on Ukraine's Independence Day. 

"Hackers and activists of the cyber front continue to disable the enemy's online resources, undermine important spheres of life in the Russian Federation and weaken the economy of the invader. 

We continue to punish the Russian invaders all over the world. We believe in the Ukrainian Armed Forces and cyber warriors. Join the social networks of the Ministry of Digital Affairs to stay up-to-date on the fight against the enemy on the digital front", the Ukrainian Ministry of Digital Transformation added.
