KALININGRAD, June 12 Unidentified people in Kaliningrad changed the satellite signal of the Europa Plus radio station and broadcast «illegal content» on the air, the head of the press service of the regional government told reporters on Monday Dmitry Lyskov.
«
"The satellite signal of the Europa Plus radio station has been replaced. We are talking about the federal segment of broadcasting. The time that illegal content was on the air was less than 5 minutes,» Lyskov said.
He specified that after that, the automation turned off the satellite broadcast source and switched to a backup source in the form of an Internet channel, where there was no substitution. Now profile structures understand the incident.
Earlier, hacker attacks on radio stations were reported in a number of Russian regions. The Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Russian Federation stated that because of this, false information about an air raid alert and the threat of a missile strike could be heard on the radio. These announcements were fake and do not correspond to reality, the ministry noted and asked to «follow the messages in official sources.» Experts studying the incident also stated that the attackers tried to send a signal to Russian satellites, blocking the broadcasting of Russian media. url=»https://ria.ru/20230612/khakery-1877677044.html» data-title=»Kuban Operational Headquarters reported a hacker attack on radio stations in the region»>
