Europol-led Operation Eastwood targeted the pro‑Russian NoName057(16) DDoS network, taking down over 100 servers, issuing seven arrest warrants, questioning 13 individuals and effecting two arrests across Europe; the group — estimated to have ~4,000 supporters and a botnet of several hundred servers — has repeatedly launched nuisance DDoS attacks against government, banking and event websites across multiple countries but has so far caused only temporary outages.
