Yandex Taxi App Hacked: By hacking the app of Yandex, a taxi service company in russia, hackers brought dozens of taxis to one place and there was a huge jam.
In russia, hackers carried out a strange incident. Hackers hacked the software of Yandex Taxi, a company providing cab service in Russia. After hacking the app, the hackers gave such a command that dozens of taxis reached the same place. The drivers also understood this when there was a long jam there. The situation became such that taxis kept coming and there was a traffic jam for three hours. The traffic police had to make a lot of effort only then the jam could be opened.
Dozens of drivers working for Yandex Taxi in moscow had no idea at first what was happening. After the jam, when the drivers had a conversation with each other, it was understood that the pickup point of dozens of cab drivers was showing the same. According to cyber experts, hackers hacked into Yandex's security system and put up many fake ride requests. The pickup locations of all these rides were also put at the same place, due to which there was such a long jam.
Is there a connection with the war between russia and Ukraine?
According to the report of Cyber News, the hackers gave the location of all the cabs to Kutuzovsky Prospect, a major avenue in Moscow. 'Hotel Ukraine' is also built at this place. It is said that this incident may also have some connection with the Ukraine-Russia war. While it is not clear who is responsible for the Yandex Taxi hack, Anonymous TV's twitter page claimed that the hacking group Anonymous was behind it. The anonymous group is part of a massive hacking campaign against russia known as 'Operasia'. Yandex is also called Russian Google.
