EU sanctions 3 GRU members for cyberattacks against Estonia

Posted on January 27, 2025 by Dissent

ERR News reports:

The European Union on Monday (January 27) imposed sanctions on three members of Russia’s military intelligence (GRU), who conducted a cyberattack against Estonia in May 2020.

Estonia named the three GRU members – Yuri Denisov, Nikolay Korchagin and Vitali Shevchenko – last autumn after an investigation. It then declared them international fugitives.

The men are members of GRU’s Unit 29155 which targets government entities, EU and NATO critical infrastructure, and aims to disrupt support to Ukraine, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.

This was the first time Estonia attributed cyberattacks against the state to specific perpetrators.

Today, EU-wide restrictive measures are imposed on the three men under its cyber sanctions regime.
