14 DAY TRIAL // A hacktivists collective from Myanmar (Burma) has taken down a number of 92 Bangladeshi government websites in response to the attacks carried out yesterday by the Bangladeshi Cyber Army.
“Stop lying that you don’t know about ‘Rohingya’, and accept your own people at your land, don't try to invade our land of Burma (Myanmar), enough is enough!” the hackers wrote.
“You people make so called name ‘Rohingya’ and letting your Bangladesh to sneak into Burma illegal since you are poor, if you want to visit to Burma, come with Papers and passport, don't come to Burma and bribe the authorities and try to invade our land,” they added.
“We, the Burmese hackers, waged the war with Bangladesh governments, and lately we found out that some scripts kiddies from Bangladesh started to hack Burmese sites. Really? Yo! script kiddies, do you want to get a name of ‘HACKER’ in the game of hacking? Try it more! you guys are imperfect! The real hackers never go to jail!”
They also claim to know the identities of many of the Bangladeshi hackers who have recently targeted sites from Myanmar.
Some of the affected websites have been restored, but many of them are still offline as a result of the attack.
It appears that they may have all been stored on the same server and that’s how the hacktivists managed to remove them so quickly.
Besides the government domains, the Myanmar hackers defaced the website of the University of Chittagong.
They also claim to have deleted the entire database of a major Bangladesh news website, BDNews24.
It seems that both sides are determined to continue the attacks and we may be witnessing a similar cyberbattle as the one that takes place between India and Pakistan.
