The website of the Bulgarian National Radio (bnr.bg) was subjected to hacker attack today at noon. The source of the attack has not been identified yet.

Over 2,500,000 access requests per second were logged, blocking access to the public radio platform. This is reminiscent of the hacker attack on Sunday, when websites of Bulgarian government institutions were blocked for a few minutes by Russian hacker gang Killnet.

Thanks to the efforts of specialists of BNR and service provider Evolink, access to the website was quickly restored.
