Anonymous strikes again: Massive leak unveils Kremlin secrets

The hacking group Anonymous announced that they executed a cyberattack on Russia, revealing 10 terabytes of data online. As reported by yahoo!news, the group had previously warned users about the actions of President Donald Trump and his alleged ties with Vladimir Putin. Anonymous is renowned for targeting governments and corporations they deem corrupt or dangerous.

The data, which leaked on April 15, 2025, contains sensitive information about the Russian political landscape and local businesses. Among the disclosed information are details about pro-Russian officials and Kremlin assets abroad. Additionally, alleged details concerning U.S. President Donald Trump were released.

Anonymous announced the attack on their account on platform X, writing: "In defence of Ukraine Anonymous has released 10TB of leaked data on all businesses operating in Russia, all Kremlin assets in the West, pro-Russian officials, Donald Trump, and more."

The move by Anonymous exposed many private topics, such as details about Russian companies, their financial activities, and connections. These actions are occurring during the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and may have a significant impact on the course of the war.

Anonymous's actions have caused panic among Russians and have highlighted the issue of surveillance. The hacking group announced that they have more unpublished information, which could reveal details about Russian espionage practices.

The described attack by Anonymous is not the first in recent years. Previously, Anonymous hacked Russian radio stations, broadcasting warnings about air raids and missile attacks. The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations considered this a provocation, but Anonymous claimed responsibility for the attack.
