Russia's national airline, Aeroflot, said it had cancelled dozens of flights after pro-Ukrainian hackers claimed an attack on the carrier's IT systems. A statement from hacking group Silent Crow said it carried out the attack with the help of a Belarusian group Cyberpartisans.

The hack may have been part of a campaign to disrupt the sense of normalcy Russians have mostly enjoyed since the start of the war.

On 28 July, the hacker group Silent Crow, in cooperation with Cyber Partisans BY, breached Aeroflot's [Russia's largest airline - ed.] internal IT infrastructure and destroyed around 7,000 physical and virtual servers.
