The first task is on the cyber experts channel. – Mikhail Fedorov (@FedorovMykhailo) is created on 26 February 2022 after the Telegram-channel operational objectives as part of the task list published 31 covering Russia, Russian government agencies, banks, State, IP address, device, data storage and e-mail servers, company, support, critical infrastructure, as well as popular Russian search engine and portal, e-mail Yandex. These actions were posted on the Facebook page by Yegor Aushev, the founder of Cyber Unit Technologies. Aushev, on the other hand, was the one who submitted the application form for recruitment on Thursday.

He also wrote that hackers from all over the world have signed up for this operation, and even hackers from Russia. Since the sites of the Kremlin, the State Duma and the Ministry of Defense are blocked, it seems that the IT army has a great influence on Russia. Reports say it may have been a DDoS attack.
