Websites for critical government ministries have suffered a cyber attack on Monday morning.

Citizen Digital has noticed that access to a majority of the websites was inaccessible, as the defacement involved altering their visual appearance and content, replacing legitimate information with unauthorized material.

One could only see encryptions that read;

"Access denied by PCP", "We will rise again", "White power worldwide" and "14:88 Heil Hitler".

The Ministries under attack include Interior, Health, Education, Energy, Labour and Water.

The breach that has been sustained for most of Monday morning until the time of press, has disrupted access to critical government services.
