Italy: Meloni blames pro-Russian hackers after cyberattack targeting a minister

On Saturday, November 7, Giorgia Meloni accused pro-Russian hackers of publishing personal data belonging to Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani on the dark web. Tajani says the threats and intimidation also target his family and links the attack to Rome’s support for Ukraine. Screenshots reviewed by Reuters show his photo on a list of 18 “hostile citizens of the Russian Federation.” Meloni expressed her solidarity and called for a coordinated response to hybrid threats and attacks on European critical infrastructure.
