The report describes May 9 incidents in which Russian-linked hackers hijacked at least 15 Ukrainian TV channels by interfering with Astra satellite feeds and also targeted a Latvian broadcaster's interactive TV server, replacing regular programming with footage of a Russian Victory Day parade; Ukrainian authorities and regional CERTs characterize the events as part of ongoing Russian information/hybrid warfare.
