The largest hacker alliance has decided to attack NATO

More than 50 hacker groups have announced the creation of the largest cybercriminal alliance to attack NATO, Europe, Ukraine and Israel.

Pro-Russian hacktivist groups such as the Cyber ​​Army of Russia and UserSec, is teaming up with another hacker group, the 7 October Union, to form a new coalition. Hackers claim that the coalition has 70 active hacking groups, but the Holy League communication channel lists 55 members. All messages on the channel are in English and Russian.

On their channel, they declare: “We will attack NATO, Europe, Ukraine and Israel. At the moment, there is no bigger alliance in the world than ours!” They call on all pro-Russian hacker groups to join attacks on Spain’s internet infrastructure in support of the detainees. The announcement follows the recent arrests of three members of the pro-Russian hacktivist group NoName(057), accused of cyberattacks on Spain and NATO allies supporting Ukraine. The arrests triggered a wave of DDoS attacks on Spain’s critical infrastructure.

The hacker alliance is created to join forces and achieve common goals. In 2023, other pro-Russian cyber groups, such as KillNet, Anonymous Sudan, and Revil, announced the creation of a “Darknet Parliament” that carried out cyber attacks on European banking institutions in response to economic sanctions against Russia.

Alliances of hackers are usually formed to unite the workforce. 7 October Union previously announced plans to join forces with the Matryoshka 424 group. Also, in 2023, the hacker alliance “Darknet Parliament” carried out cyber attacks on European banking institutions, in particular the European Investment Bank (EIB), which led to a short-term disruption .
