Cnews24[.]ru shutdown its server after threats from Anonymous
Cnews24.ru was founded with the intention of shutting down its server for security reasons.
The servers for cnews24.ru are located in Moscow, Russia.
Anonymous claimed on Twitter that they attempted to scan the official site but were unsuccessful because the news channel had shut down their servers due to the constant hacking of Russian news channels in the past.

Anonymous initially claimed that they had hacked live TV channels Russia 24, Channel One, and Moscow 24, as well as “Russian streaming services Wink and Ivi (similar to Netflix).”
According to reports, hackers also jammed Russian airwaves with audio of the Ukrainian national anthem and broadcast “troll faces on Russian military radio.”
