Denmark accused Russia on Thursday of cyberattacks in 2024 and 2025 against a water utility company that caused pipes to burst and targeting government websites ahead of the November elections, marking the first time Copenhagen has publicly attributed such attacks to Moscow.
Pro-Russian hacking group Z-Pentest attacked the Tureby Alkestrup Waterworks in late 2024, altering water pressure and causing at least three pipes to burst in Køge, 35 kilometres south of Copenhagen, Denmark's Defence Intelligence Service said.
