Posted on May 21, 2012 by Lee J

content/images/gallery/random3/oops-google-chrome-could-not-connect-to-irimo-ir_.png Along with some other well known hacking news sites we have also received a tip off about an attack on the Iran Meteorological Organization (Irimo.ir ). The attack comes from an hacker using the handle you-r!-k@n who played a part in the middle east cyber war at the start of the year and is now claiming to of destroyed the site and all sub domains as well. On a article on hackmageddon.com comes screen shots from the attack as proof it has happened. Ina paste on pastebin is another link to an untitled paste that contains a bunch of accounts and login information. At time of publishing the website was still offline and has been now for 72hrs+ now and you-r!-k@n has said that every single server, down to their mail server was destroyed in these attacks and they have still made no effort to restore or gain control of them. So is this the start of a new middle east cyber war? https://pastebin.com/WLyE4CT3 https://pastebin.com/G4d0yff9
