Residents of Yekaterinburg were frightened by alarming messages. At some point, the video signal disappeared on several channels, and an inscription appeared on the screen about the need to go down to the shelters.
“We were watching cartoons with the child, and suddenly this inscription appeared on the screen,” said the woman from Yekaterinburg. – And suddenly the siren went off and a woman’s voice said that an anti-aircraft alarm was announced.
Similar messages were broadcast on the radio. A number of listeners decided that it was a test of the warning systems, which had been announced the day before. However, this information was denied in the Sverdlovsk branch of the radio and television network. The company informed that the technical means are working normally.
The Ministry of Emergency Situations reported that the broadcast of messages is a hacker attack on the servers of national television channels. Residents of other regions said they received similar messages.
