The website of the Ukrainian Embassy in Oslo is down. Several other embassies in the Nordic region are also down due to a potential computer attack.

“I can confirm that our website is down due to a computer attack,” Iryna Riabtsjuk at the Ukrainian embassy in Oslo told NTB.

She confirmed that other embassies were also affected, and added that there have been repeated computer attacks on the embassies in connection with Russia’s attack on Ukraine.

“We are available via phone and our page on Facebook,” Riabtsjuk added.

The Ukrainian embassy in Denmark informed Berlingske that it had been hit by a cyber-attack earlier in the day.

According to Danish media, the embassies in Sweden, the USA, the United Kingdom, and Germany have also been affected.
