'Cyberattack' cripples WikiLeaks
The WikiLeaks website crashed early today in an apparent cyberattack after the accelerated publication of tens of thousands of once-secret US State Department cables by the anti-secrecy organisation raised new concerns about the exposure of confidential American embassy sources.
“WikiLeaks.org is presently under attack,” the group said on Twitter. An hour later, the site and the cables posted there were inaccessible.
