Russian TV Hacked To Display Message Showing Zelensky Making Vulgar Insult About Putin, Declaring Ukraine Will Retake Crimea 

Crimean televisions were hacked by displaying a message from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy mocking Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The screens showed multiple messages declaring Putin “a d—-.” 

Viewers were also shown a message vowing that Crimea will eventually return to Ukraine. 

“Ukraine will return its territory, our people,” Zelensky said in the message. “We will not leave anyone to the occupiers.”

The hack was confirmed by Oleg Kryuchkov, an official based in Crimea. Russian officials looked to end Zelensky’s broadcast.

In June, broadcasts of two Russian cable channels were interrupted by a video featuring Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense.

According to leaked U.S. military cables, it is believed that Putin has been receiving chemotherapy for cancer for several years. In a speech last week, Putin demanded that Russian women have “eight or more children” to increase the population, which war casualties have depleted.
