The online broadcast of the programs of the Bulgarian National Radio in the platform binar.bg was compromised on Sunday night in an attempted hacker attack. The problem has been solved. The content of the BNR is again available on the digital channels.

The websites of other Bulgarian media, including leading national televisions, were also hacked. Vladimir Putin, made up as  Andy Warhol’s Marilyn Monroe, appeared on their players against the background of the rainbow flag.

“Bulgarian media backed the victims and the aggressor reacted”, media expert Associate Professor Georgi Lozanov said in an interview for the Bulgarian National Radio.
